Subsequently, layered ferrite-BaTiO3 samples were formed by uniaxial pressing of the corresponding ceramic powders. These green samples were sintered with two different sintering schedules, aiming to study the ferrite-BaTiO3 interfaces after sintering. The analyses were made at the cross section of the interfaces and at the interface surfaces after separation of the layers. The sintered layered samples were utilized to analyze sintering mismatch, diffusion at the interfaces and identification of some newly formed phases. EDS analysis across the TB-FCO interface showed evidences of diffusion. It was observed that the FNICO layers were detached from TB during sintering, but the same was not observed in the TB-FCO samples, although shrinkage mismatch resulted in some defects. XRD analyses suggested the presence of Ti2O at the TB-FCO interface and BaTiNiFe10O19 at the TB-FNICO interface as products of the reactions between the ferrites and BaTiO3.","PeriodicalId":20596,"journal":{"name":"Processing and Application of Ceramics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68580823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The CeO2 reinforced HA powders were synthesized having homogenous particle distribution via spray drying process. The synthesized powders and the produced scaffolds were examined using different characterization methods. From the results, it can be seen that the scaffolds were significantly affected by amount of CeO2 additive. An increase in the compressive strength is observed as the amount of CeO2 additive rises. Furthermore, the composite scaffolds possessed a high mineralization ability of apatite in simulated body fluid (SBF).

According to XRD the average crystallite size increased with the annealing temperature, but decreased when the cadmium concentration increased.

However, some inherent disadvantages of these materials have not yet been overcome, such as the lack of biological properties to improve the new bone formation in situ and the long remodeling time. The main aim of this work was to improve the performance of the commercial bone-based grafts and study its properties in vitro. For this purpose, rat bone was combined with bioglass, a synthetic biomaterial that displays high degradation kinetics and bioactivity properties, endowed with biological properties. The sol-gel method was used for 45S5 bioglass (45S5) synthesis, using TEOS and water soluble salts as starting materials. 45S5 was then associated with the rat bone, generating the new graft. FTIR results indicated the hydroxyapatite formation after the bioactivity tests. SEM and bioactivity results were used to assess the evolution of the graft. The bioactivity tests showed that after 30 days the mass gain of about 30 wt.% was due to the deposition of hydroxyapatite crystals at the surface of the grafts, suggesting the potential properties of this new graft for application in implantology.","PeriodicalId":20596,"journal":{"name":"Processing and Application of Ceramics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68581185","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
