Abstract
In the last years, bioactive glasses and glass-ceramics drew the attention for their application in the production of implants. Among them, Bioglass®45S5 is the most commonly used in terms of bioactivity, but its sintering behavior and the related glass-ceramics strongly depend on the followed synthesis process. For these reasons, this paper reports a comparison of the properties and the thermal behavior of bioactive 45S5 glasses produced by a conventional melting process starting from suitable solid precursors or an innovative sol-gel procedure.
