The structural role of zinc in complex phosphate glasses for new bone cements

DOI

A study of zinc containing phosphate glasses for biomedical applications is proposed. The structural role of zinc as a function of composition will be investigated through diffuse neutron scattering. In particular the change in the role of zinc from network modifying to network forming will be examined through changes in the Zn-O correlations and average coordination numbers. These results will be compared with solid state NMR in order to understand the role of zinc in bone cement formation.
