Incorporating Germanium Oxide into the Glass Phase of Novel Zinc/Magnesium-Based GPCs Designed for Bone Void Filling: Evaluating Their Physical and Mechanical Properties
The structural role of Germanium (Ge), when substituting for Zinc (Zn) up to 8 mol % in the 0.48SiO2–0.12CaO–0.36ZnO–0.04MgO glass series, was investigated with respect to both the glass chemistry and also the properties of glass polyalkenoate cements (GPCs) manufacture...
