Item Effect of CaF2 addition on optical properties of barium phosphate glasses(American Institute of Physics Inc. subs@aip.org, 2014) Narayanan, N.M.; Venkateswara Rao, G.; Akhila, B.E.; Shashikala, H.D.Ternary barium phosphate glasses, (50-X)BaO-XCaF2-50P2O5 have been prepared by adding 0-10 mol% of CaF2 to binary barium phosphate glasses. The amorphous nature of the prepared glasses was confirmed by X-ray diffraction technique. The UV-Visible absorption spectra have been recorded, optical band gap energy Eopt and Urbach energy Etail were determined. Shift in Eopt and Etail with increase in concentration of CaF2 is noted. FTIR analysis was carried out to investigate the short and intermediate-range orders in glasses. Shift of (P-O-P) band to higher wave number with the substitution of BaO with CaF2 shows the shortening of the phosphate chains. Hardness and density of glass samples were measured and correlated with the composition of glasses. © 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.Item Effective role of P2O5 on in-vitro bioactivity of soda lime phosphosilicate glasses(Elsevier Ltd, 2017) Kiran, P.; Udayashankar, N.K.; Shashikala, H.D.In-vitro bio active properties have been studied on Sol-gel derived 58SiO2-33CaO-(5-X) Na2O-(4+X) P2O5 (where X=0, 5) bio glass samples soaked for seven days in a simulated body fluid (SBF) solution. X-ray diffraction studies indicated the presence of Hydroxyl Apatite (HA) crystalline phase in the synthesized samples. The spherical shaped hydroxyl carbonated apatite (HCA) nuclei were observed under scanning electron microscope. The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopic analysis confirmed the presence of carbonates in the glass matrix. In particular, larger concentration of P2O5 in the bioglass resulted in superior bioactivity compared to low concentration of P2O5. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd.
