Oxide glasses have proven useful as bioactive materials, owing to their fast degradation kinetics and tunable properties. Hence, in recent years tailoring the properties of bioactive glasses through compositional design have become the subject of …
Glasses have applications in regenerative medicine due to their bioactivity, enabling interactions with hard and soft tissues. Soda-lime phosphosilicate glasses, such as 45S5, represent a model system of bioactive glasses. Regardless of their …
Study the properties of oxide glasses
Oxide glasses are generally formed by a network of glass former polyhedra, and network modifiers having the role, either to neutralize/ stabilize the charge of the glass former polyhedra or depolymerize the glass network. The effect of the modifier …
The glass transition temperature (T$_g$) is the temperature, after which the supercooled liquid undergoes a dynamical arrest. Usually, the glass network modifiers (e.g., Na$_2$O) affect the behavior of T$_g$. However, in aluminosilicate glasses, the …
The glass transition temperature (Tg) is the temperature, after which the supercooled liquid undergoes a dynamical arrest. Usually, the glass network modifiers (e.g., Na2O) affect the behavior of Tg. However, in aluminosilicate glasses, the effect of …
We rely on molecular dynamics simulations to investigate and discuss the effect of alumina content on the thermodynamic, elastic and structural properties of calcium aluminosilicate glasses in the light of available experimental data. The alumina …
Ternary aluminosilicate glasses are of great interest in glass and earth sciences. The structural role of the non-network cations is not fully understood until now. Understanding the structural effect of the non-network cations is necessary for …
Understanding the role of TiO$_2$ in BaO‐TiO$_2$‐SiO$_2$ (BTS) glasses is one of the keys to develop new glasses and glass‐ceramics for different technological applications. For the first time, molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to get new …
