Nucleation and growth of needle-like fluorapatite crystals in bioactive glass–ceramics
چکیده انگلیسی

The nucleation behaviors of glass–ceramics with different Ca–mica (Ca0.5Mg3AlSi3O10F2)/fluorapatite ratios were investigated. By using differential thermal analysis (DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope with an energy dispersive spectrometer (SEM/EDS), the effect of CaO and P2O5 addition on the nucleation behaviors was studied. Results showed that the addition of CaO and P2O5 promoted nucleation process and led to the formation of different nucleation phases. After further heat treatment, Ca5(PO4)3F crystals were of needle-like morphology, instead of particle-like reported in previous studies. This can be attributed to the one-dimensional rapid growth of fluorapatite along the c-axis. The values of the Avrami parameter, n, and the dimensionality of crystal growth, m, are found to be 2 and 1, respectively, which indicated that the bulk nucleation is the dominant mechanism in crystallization, and one-dimensional growth of fluorapatite is preferred. Since needle-like fluorapatite crystals are of the same morphology to hydroxyapatites in human bones, the glass–ceramics thus prepared show excellent bioactivity in vivo.
