Abstract

The previous research has reported the phosphate based glass has potential medical application due to excellent cytocompatibility and controllable degradability. In this study, Six novel phosphate based glass formulations were produced as two glass system 48P(2)O(5)-12B(2)O(5)-(25-X)MgO-14CaO-1Na(2)O-(X)Fe2O3 (X = 6, 8, 10) and 45P(2)O(5)-(Y)B2O3(32-Y)MgO-14CaO-1Na(2)O-8Fe(2)O(3) (Y = 12, 15, 20) for glass fibre drawing study, whilst five of them were converted to be fibre successfully. The PBG with 20 mol. % B2O3 was difficult to form fibre with stable meniscus due to high viscosity. The mechanical properties of the fibres were found to increase with increasing B2O3 or Fe2O3 content in the glass. The highest tensile strength (1253 +/- 92 MPa) was recorded for 48P(2)O(5) 12B(2)O(3)-15MgO-14CaO-1Na(2)O-10Fe(2)O(3) glass fibres. The assessment of change in mechanical properties of glass fibres was performed in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) at 37 degrees C for 28 days. The mass loss and dissolution rate of glass fibre was reduced with an increase of Fe2O3 content from 6 to 10 mol. % whilst an increase of dissolution rate was observed with increasing B2O3 content. During the degradation period, a huge decrease on tensile strength was observed, and 20 similar to 40 % tensile strength was residual by 28-day. Whereas, no significant change (P > 0.05) in the tensile modulus was revealed.
