Glasses with nominal composition 34SiO2–(45 − x) CaO–16 P2O5–4.5 MgO–0.5 CaF2–x Fe2O3 (where x = 5, 10, 15, 20 wt.%) have been synthesized by melt quench technique. These have been investigated for structural features by using Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Results have shown an increase in fraction of non‐bridging oxygen in glasses with an increase in iron oxide content up to 15 wt.% and subsequently decreases with further increase in iron oxide content to 20 wt.%. These effects are originated by the incorporation of Fe2O3 into the silica network. Iron oxide behaves as a network modifier at low concentration and stabilizes the glass network at higher content. The glass-ceramics exhibit an increase in the formation of magnetite phase with an increase in iron oxide. The glass phase in the glass-ceramics matrix, controls the surface dissolution, which in turn decides the response of the material in-vitro. The glass-ceramics with 15 wt.% iron oxide has shown optimum response in simulated body fluid.
