Abstract

The medium-range order of phospho-silicate bioactive glasses (with compositions (2-p)SiO2 center dot 1Na(2)O center dot 1.1CaO center dot pP2O5, in which p = 0.10, 0.20, 0.26) has been studied by means of a combined-experimental (MAS-NMR, chemical durability measurements) and computational (classical molecular dynamics (MD)) approach. The structural model obtained by MD is showed to be helpful in the interpretation of the NMR spectra. A small amount of Si-O-P link units has been detected in glasses with low P2O5-content, but at high P2O5 concentration the percentage of Si-O-P bridges becomes important. However, Q(n) distributions show that the HP5 (p = 0.20) glass structure is less polymerized with respect to the H (p = 0.10) and HP6.5 (p = 0.26) glasses. These results provide useful explanation of the behavior of these glasses in water and highlight the influence of the medium-range order on a very important property of potential bioactive glasses such as the chemical durability
