Homology of selenium (Se) and tellurium (Te) endow the functional similarity of Se-doped and Te-doped mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles in bone tissue engineering

The focus of bone tissue engineering is to realize the regeneration of new functional bone through the synergistic combination of biomaterials, therapeutic agents and cells. Doping of mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) nanoparticles with therapeutic ions to give them special properties is gaining increasing interest in the design of biomaterials for bone tissue engineering. In this study, we synthesized Se-doped and Te-doped MBG nanoparticles using the sol-gel method, and demonstrated for the first time that the homology of Se and Te endows the functional similarity of bone tissue engineering, and also obtains the desired properties by guiding cell behavior and changing the physicochemical properties of the biomaterial. Results found that MBG nanoparticles doped with Se and Te respectively can be gained similar structure, and thus endowed their similar properties as expected, such as drug sustained release, anticancer and antibacterial properties in a dose-dependent manner. This study provides a feasible strategy for the development of homologous group ions doped nanobiomaterials and their evaluation and basic research in bone tissue engineering.     

Waste glass in civil engineering applications—A review

Each year, hundreds of thousands of tons of industrial wastes are being stockpiled, landfilled, and disposed of in storages occupying large areas of land that would otherwise be available for productive use. Recycling of such wastes is now becoming of urgent global interest due to an increasing population, the rise in anthropogenic activities, and the need for more efficient resource and waste management systems. Among many wastes, the generation of glass is dramatically increasing, particularly in the municipal, industrial, and construction sectors. In civil engineering, in general, crushed waste glass has been mainly investigated as a substitute for sand and fine-grained aggregate in concrete production. In geotechnical engineering, in particular, the application of glass wastes is mainly limited to road pavements or as an additive to different soils for subgrade improvement. While glass wastes are relatively inert and potentially offer several opportunities for recycling as a substitute for diminishing and increasingly expensive sand supplies, their potential use yet remains relatively under-researched. This paper systematically reviews the current status of knowledge on the use of glass wastes in various civil engineering applications and discusses the suitability assessment of waste glass for use as a sustainable alternative to traditional civil engineering materials.     

Synthesis,characterization and biocompatibility evaluation of sol–gel derived bioactive glass scaffolds prepared by freeze casting method

In this study, a new class of bioactive glass scaffolds was prepared through freeze casting method for bone tissue engineering applications. After analyzing the structural characteristics of the scaffolds, in vitro biological evaluations were assessed through monitoring alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity of osteoblast cells and soaking in simulated body fluid (SBF) for different time intervals. It was shown that the scaffolds consisted of bioactive glass plates with interconnected pores between them, aligned along the ice growth direction. The ability of the scaffolds for supporting the growth of human fetal osteoblastic cells (hFOB 1.19) was approved. Moreover, inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) showed meaningful compositional changes of calcium, phosphorus and silicon in SBF solution, indicating the apatite forming ability of the scaffolds. The present investigation revealed that freeze casting could be an effective method for the preparation of highly bioactive scaffolds. In addition, the scaffolds proved to be highly compatible for the proposed works in vivo.

Phase-separation engineering in fluorozirconate glass for designing and fabricating of transparent perfluorinate glass ceramic

Perfluorinate glass ceramics with ultra-low phonon energy are very important optical and photonic materials. Unfortunately, there is no suitable method to obtain transparent perfluorinate glass ceramics due to poor thermal stability of fluoride glass. As a result, wide applications of glass ceramics in advanced infrared systems are restricted. Here, an effective method based on phase-separation engineering is used to develop transparent perfluorinate glass ceramics. In this article, a novel transparent Er³⁺-doped ZnZrF₆-Ba₆Zn₇F₂₆ perfluorinate glass ceramic was designed and fabricated by phase-separation engineering. The sample exhibits low phonon energy (564 cm⁻¹), ultra-wide transmission range (0.33–8.2 μm, T ≥ 50 %), and strong infrared emission, which is better than that of ZBLAN glass, oxide-, and oxyfluoride-glass ceramics. These good properties of the perfluorinate glass ceramic demonstrate that phase-separation engineering not only offers an effective approach to obtain perfluorinate glass ceramics but also provides wide-ranging opportunities for advanced infrared optical and photonic materials.     

Fabrication of superhydrophobic surfaces on a glass substrate via hot embossing

This study developed a new hot pressing process to prepare superhydrophobic surfaces with controllable shape and size on a glass substrate. Microstructures were fabricated on tungsten carbide mold via picosecond laser processing. Microgroove structures were reproduced on glass during the hot embossing process and SiO₂ nanoparticles laid on the mold were also embedded into the glass surface under the action of heat and pressure to provide nanostructures. The contact angle of the superhydrophobic glass surface reached up to 161.8°, and the sliding angle was only 3°. The structures and chemical composition of superhydrophobic glass surface were identified by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The 3D laser scanning microscopy result showed the height (20 μm) of the microgroove structures, while white light interferometry revealed the surface roughness (Ra 2.725 μm). The superhydrophobic glass surface demonstrated satisfactory temperature resistance and chemical stability through temperature and acid and alkali solution immersion tests. The surface exhibited certain mechanical stability by friction and wear test. This work provides a new hot embossing method for solving the problem of structural consistency and mass production of superhydrophobic glass, and will have great application prospects in the engineering field.

Glass: The Nanotechnology Connection

Nanoscale science and engineering, or “nanotechnology” as it is commonly known, has been a fundamental component of glass technology for hundreds if not thousands of years. Numerous examples can be found where our understanding of glass at the nanoscale level has proved transformational in the fabrication and application of this material. Among these are band theory, photosensitivity, ligand field theory, glass structure, microcrack theory, amorphous phase separation, controlled crystallization, and surface modification. Modern applications of glass in such diverse fields as energy, medicine, electronics, photonics, and communications are critically dependent on our awareness and appreciation of the intrinsic connections between glass and nanotechnology. Starting at the low end of the nanoscale, we review fundamental aspects of these connections with the intent of drawing attention to their role in both contemporary and future glass science and engineering. We argue that many of the most useful and interesting behaviors of glass are born at the nanoscale, even when we initially do not notice it.     

Materials Development of Optical Fiber

Traditionally, new materials are developed in response to the requirements of an emerging device technology. In the optical fiber case, development of glass as a transmission medium came as the culmination of a century-long quest for improved broadband telecommunications, a search that established the superiority of light signals transmitted through glass over electronic signals transmitted by wire.     

Efficient manipulation of 2.0 µm mid-infrared luminescence in silicate glass by structural engineering

Increasing the number of luminescence emitters without concentration quenching is essential to realize the high doping in silicate glass system, which is favorable for the output of single-frequency fiber lasers. In this work, the concentration quenching threshold of mid-infrared luminescence is enhanced by 60% after macro-scale manipulation of glassy structure. The reason can be attributed to the reduced maximum phonon energy after the increasing of Pb content and the increasing number of emitters due to the looser glassy network. The absorption and emission cross sections after structural engineering can reach to 0.75?×?10^–20 cm² and 1.53?×?10^–20 cm², respectively. These results reveal that the concentration quenching threshold can be effectively enhanced through the structural manipulation in a wide range, and the prepared lead silicate glass after structural engineering can be the ideal candidate for drawing optical fiber and are potential in future optical applications.
