Bioglass which is one of the surface active bionmaterials has a good biocompatibility but a poor mechanical strength, In the present work therefore two types of fluoride-containing bioglasses were coated on an alumina to improve mechanical strength. Crystallization of the coating layer and the hydroxyapatite formation on the bioactive glass coatings in tris-buffer solution were studied. When bioactive glass coated alumina was heat-treated Na2CaSi3O8 crystal was formed on the layer at lower temperature while wollastonite(CaSIO3) was obtained at higher temperature. Hydroxyapatite forming rate on the coating layer with Na2CaSi3O8 crystal was delayed with SiO2 contents in glass composition. However the hydroxyapatite was developed in 20minutes regardless SiO2 contents when the coating layer crystallized into wollastonite. More amount of P3+ ions were leached out of the coating layer with wollastonite than that with Na2CaSi3O8 crystal while Na+ and Ca2+ ions were leached out more easily from the Na2CaSi3O8 crystal containing coating layer.

Nanoporous bioactive glass(NBG) ceramic with well interconnected pore structures were fabricated bytriblock copolymer templating and sol-gel techniques. Hierarchically porous BGbeads were also successfully synthesized by controlling the condition of solvent.The beads have hierarchically nano- and macro-pore structure with a sizesbetween several tens nanometers and several hundred micrometers. Both NBG andBG beads show superior bone-forming bioactivity and good in vitrobiodegradability. Biocompatibility both in vitro and in vivo were examed andwas revealed that it largely relies on the pore morphology as well ascomposition. Our synthetic process can be adapted for the purpose of preparingvarious bioceramics, which have excellent potential applications in the fieldof biomaterials such as tissue engineering and drug storage.

Hardening and hydroxyapatite(HAp) formation behavior of the bioactive cements in the system of $CaO-SiO_{2}-P_{2}O_{5}$ glasses and the corresponding glass-ceramics were studied. DCPD (Dicalcium Phosphate Dihydrate: $CaHPO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$) and DCPA (Dicalcium Phosphate Anhydrous: $CaHPO_4$) were developed when the prepared glass and glass-ceramic powders were mixed with three different solutions. The DCPD and DCPA transformed to HAp when the cement was soaked in Simulated Body Fluid (SBF), and this HAp formation strongly depended on the releasing capacity of $Ca^{2+}$ ions from the cements. The glass-ceramic containing apatite showed fast setting, but no HAp formation was observed because no $Ca^{2+}$ ions were released from this glass-ceramics. The compressive strength of the cements increased with reaction time in SBF until all DCPD and DCPA transformed to HAp.

Two kinds of bioactive glass were coated on the Ti6Al4V alloy by the enameling technique. In order to reduce the thermal stress due to the difference in expansion coefficient with the alloy with the secondary coating forming hydroxyapatite, the difference in expansion coefficient between the alloy and the two glasses was adjusted at $2{\times}10^{-6}/^{\circ}C$ intervals. FE-SEM and EDS analysis showed that good adhesion was formed between the Ti6Al4V alloy and the primary coating by diffusion bonding. After immersion in SBF solution, it was confirmed from FT-IR that hydroxycarbonate apatite formed in the secondary coating was not different from bulk bioactive glass.

Bioactive glass powders were synthesized by hydrothermal chemical route by the use of ultrasonic energy irradiation. We used sodalime, calcium nitrate tetra hydrate and di ammonium hydrogen phosphate as the precursor material to synthesize $SiO_2$ rich bio-active glass materials. The $SiO_2$ content was varied in the precursor mixture to 60, 52 and 45 mole%. Dense compacts were obtained by microwave sintering at $1,100^{\circ}C$. Mechanical properties were characterized for the fabricated dense bioactive glasses and were found to be comparable with conventional CaO-$SiO_2$-$Na_2O$-$P_2O_5$ bioactive glass. Detailed biocompatibility evaluation of the glass composition was investigated by in-vitro culture of MG-63 cell and mesenchyme stem cell. Cell adhesion behavior was investigated for both of the cell by one cell morphology for 30, 60 and 90 minutes. Cell proliferation behavior was investigated by culturing both of the cells for 1, 3 and 7 days and was found to be excellent. Both SEM and confocal laser scanning microscopy were used for the investigation. Western blot analysis was performed to evaluate the bimolecular level interaction and extent and rate of specific protein expression. The ability to form biological apatite in physiological condition was observed with simulated body fluid (SBF). In-vivo bone formation behavior was investigated after implanting the materials inside rabbit femur for 1 and 3 month. The bone formation behavior was excellent in all the bioglass compositions, specially the composition with 60% $SiO_2$ content showed most promising trend.

Bioglass 조성 중 45S5 (46.1SiO$_2$.24.4$Na_2$O.26.9CaO.2.6P$_2$O$_{5}$ : 몰비)를 기본 조성으로 하여 46P4 (46.2SiO$_2$.49.5CaO.4.3P$_2$O$_{5}$ : 몰비), 46SF (46.1SiO$_2$24.4$Na_2$O.16.1CaO.2.6P$_2$O$_{5}$.10.8CaF : 몰비) 그리고 55SF (55.1SiO$_2$.9.2$Na_2$O.27.8CaO.3.4P$_2$O$_{5}$.4.5CaF : 몰비)를 제조하여 tris-완충용액 및 유사 생체용액(simulated body fluid)에서 반응시킨 후 생체활성유리의 표면에 생성되는 아파타이트 결정형에 관하여 연구하였다. 45S5 유리를 tris-완충용액에 반응시켰을 경우 6시간 반응시부터 수산화 아파타이트가 생성되었으나 유사 생체용액에 반응시켰을 경우에는 24시간까지도 수산화 아파타이트 결정이 생성되지 못하고 비정질 상태의 칼슘 인산염만 형성되었다. tris-완충용액에 각 조성의 유리를 200시간 반응시킨 경우 불소를 함유하지 않은 유리에서는 잎사귀 모양의 수산화 아파타이트가, 불소를 함유한 유리에서는 구상의 플루오르 아파타이트가 형성되었다. 그러나 유사 생체용액에 각 조성의 유리를 200시간 반응시켰을 경우 불소를 함유하지 않은 유리에서는 누에고치형의 수산화 아파타이트가 형성되었고 불소를 함유한 유리에서는 무정형의 칼슘 인산염이 생성되었다.

It has been reported that a biocement obtained by mixing CaO-SiO2-P2O5 glass powder and ammonium phosphate solution has biocompatibility as well as high strength. However, the compositional dependence on its hardening and hydroxyapatite formation phenomena has not been studied. Therefore, the main objective of this work is to study the effects of P2O5, MgO in CaO-SiO2 system glass on the hardening and hydroxyapatite formation. When more than 50 mole% of CaO containing CaO-SiO2 glasses was reacted with ammonium phosphate solution, CaNH4PO4.H2O crystal was formed, but the glass with less than 50 mol% of CaO formed (NH4)2HPO4 and NH4H2PO4 crystals which are derived from ammonium phosphate solution without reacting with the glasses. As the amount of P2O5 in CaO-SiO2-P2O5 glass system was increased, the formation of CaNH4PO4.H2O crystal was enhanced. When those hardened samples were reacted with tris-buffer solution, hydroxyapatite was obtained only for the sample with CaNH4PO4.H2O. While the substitution of MgO for CaO decreased the formation of CaNH4PO4.H2O crystal. MgNH4PO4.H2O crystla was formed in high MgO containing glass, which did not react with tris-buffer solution.

Glass-ceramic materials, which consist of glass matrix phase containing crystalline ${\beta}-Ca_3(PO_4)_2$ and ${\beta}-Ca_2P_2O_7$, have been prepared by heating at $750-900^{\circ}C$ of calcium phosphate invert glasses in the silica-free $CaO-P_2O_5-TiO_2-Na_2O$, system. With increasing heating temperature from 750 to $900^{\circ}C$, the crystallite size of precipitated ${\beta}-Ca_3(PO_4)_2$ in glass with $55CaO{\cdot}35P_2O_5{\cdot}3TiO_2{\cdot}7Na_2O$ (mol%) composition increased from 48 to 91 nm. With the extension of the immersion time in dilute acetic acid solution (pH = 5) to ${\geq}$200 min, the degree of dissolution of $Ca^{2+}$ and $P^{5+}$ ions in the glass-ceramics was linearly increased and the solution was constantly maintained at pH = ~7. Biomimetic nanostructured (62-88 nm in average dia.), sphere-shaped hydroxyapatite was homogeneously formed on the surface of the glass-ceramics when socked for 7-14 days in a Hanks' solution, indicating bioactivity of the prepared glass-ceramics.
