Optimizing controlled degradation, bioactivity, and mechanical behavior in sol-gel synthesized aluminum titanate biomaterials.

Orthopaedic applications require materials that balance mechanical strength, biocompatibility, and controlled degradation, particularly for bone regeneration and load-bearing purposes. This study investigates the effects of varying weight percentages of AlOand TiO(25:75, 50:50, and 75:25) on the characteristics of AlTiObiomaterials synthesized via the sol-gel method. Structural and chemical characterizations, including XRD and FTIR, confirmed the successful synthesis of phase-pure AlTiO, highlighting functional groups such as Al-O and Ti-O.

Calcium silicate biocomposites: effects of selenium oxide on the physico-mechanical features and theirbiological assessments.

Bone tissue regenerative material serves as a prospective recovery candidate with self-adaptable biological properties of bio-activation, degradability, compatibility, and antimicrobial efficacy instead of metallic implants. Such materials are highly expensive due to chemical reagents and complex synthesis procedures, making them unaffordable for patients with financial constraints. This research produced an efficient bone tissue regenerative material using inexpensive naturally occurring source materials, including silica sand and limestone.
