Composite Biomaterials Based on Sol-Gel Mesoporous Silicate Glasses: A Review

Composite Biomaterials Based on Sol-Gel Mesoporous Silicate Glasses: A Review

Bioactive glasses are able to bond to bone and stimulate the growth of new tissue while dissolving over time, which makes them ideal materials for regenerative medicine. The advent of mesoporous glasses, which are typically synthesized via sol-gel routes, allowed researchers to develop a broad and versatile class of novel biomaterials that combine superior bone regenerative potential (compared ...

Sol‐gel silicate thin‐film electronic properties

Immunosensing of Trinitrotoluene using Sol-Gel Glasses

Research in recent years has demonstrated that biological molecules such as enzymes, immunoglobulins, and other proteins can be immobilized in sol-gel derived matrices and retain their biological function. Development ofglasses with encapsulated biomolecules has opened the possibility of solid-state optical biosensors for the detection and measurement of desired analytes. In this work, we repor...

Sol Gel-Derived SBA-16 Mesoporous Material

The aim of this article is to review current knowledge related to the synthesis and characterization of sol gel-derived SBA-16 mesoporous silicas, as well as a review of the state of the art in this issue, to take stock of knowledge about current and future applications. The ease of the method of preparation, the orderly structure, size and shape of their pores and control, all these achievable...

Sol-gel synthesis of ordered mesoporous alumina.

Well-ordered mesoporous alumina materials with high surface area and a narrow pore size distribution were synthesized using a sol-gel based self assembly technique.
