Effect of CeO2 Addition on In Vitro Bioactivity Properties of K-Mica-Fluorapatite Based Glass Ceramics

Article Preview

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to investigate the crystallization behavior and in-vitro bioactivity character of glass ceramics having 3:7 weight ratio of fluorapatite (Ca10(PO4)6F2) to potassium mica (K2Mg3AlSi3O10F2) as a function of cerium oxide addition, and compare the morphology of hydroxycarbonate apatite (HCA) layer formation depending on cerium oxide addition.
