Popis: Nano-bioceramic particles serving as a reinforcement can improve the mechanical and biological properties of magnesium implants, but they might have some side effects, that must be addressed. In this research, magnesium composites including 10 wt% nano-bioglass (nBG) were fabricated using powder metallurgy (PM10) and spark plasma sintering (SPS10) methods for bone reconstruction purposes. The results of the compression test indicated that the SPS10 sample had higher mechanical properties, in comparison to the PM10 sample, and nBG had more reinforcing effect on the mechanical properties of magnesium matrix. X-ray difractometery indicated that nBG was chemically reacted with magnesium in the PM10 sample, and resulted in some extra phases (MgO and Mg2Si) formation, while there was no detectable extra phases in the SPS10 sample. However, a higher in vitro degradation rate was observed for PM10 sample, because of multi-phase formation at the magnesium matrix. To inhibit the chemical reaction between magnesium and nBG kinetically, a short time sintering process can be, therefore, recommended.
