Comparison between Bioactive Sol-Gel and Melt-Derived Glasses/Glass-Ceramics Based on the Multicomponent SiO<sub>2</sub>–P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>–CaO–MgO–Na<sub>2</sub>O–K<sub>2</sub>O System

Bioactive sol-gel glasses are attractive biomaterials from both technological and functional viewpoints as they require lower processing temperatures compared to their melt-derived counterparts and exhibit a high specific surface area due to inherent nanoporosity. However, most of these materials ar...
