Thermal Analysis of Two Niobo-Phosphate Glasses

In the present study, two new biocompatible glasses, with the same components, but in different proportions, were produced.The thermal behavior of both glasses was analyzed and the glass transition temperatures (Tg) were determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) for both glasses. The DSC analyses showed that the bioactive glass with Ca/P = 1.68 showed higher Tg than the bioactive glass with Ca/P = 1.33.
