1.1 METALS AS A BIOACTIVE MATERIAL

Basically, metals are used as biocompatible materials rather than bioactive materials
due to their bulk nature that a human body cannot afford. Conventional metals such
as aluminium, titanium, copper, mild steel, nickel and other transition block elements
which are anticorrosive in nature can be used as implants in bulk form as a support
system to enable the growth of the bone or sometimes as a permanent implant. This
literature dates back to the early 18th century of using metals as implants; however,
over more than a century, this practice was followed by the clinicians to treat mostly
various bone-related issues such as cartilage damages, osteoporosis and arthritis.
When titanium is considered, it is a popular material for bone implants due to its
biocompatibility, strength and light weight. It is also corrosion resistant and has a
low modulus of elasticity, which means it is exible enough to move with the bone
without causing pain or discomfort. It is used in joint replacement, fracture xation,
spinal fusion and dental implants. Likewise, aluminium was found to be one of the
potential materials for biomedical applications due to its interesting properties such
as biocompatibility, light weight and strength; i.e., high strength to weight ratio, cor-
rosion resistance and Osseointegration potential make them more versatile. Unlike
the titanium, the Osseo integration potential of the aluminium makes it potential for
biological applications, since the process of Osseo integration involves the bonding
of the bone tissue and promoting the growth through exchange of ions. Such materi-
als are referred to as bioactive materials and lie in the interest of the current scientic
community. However, excess amount of aluminium can result in adverse effects such
as induced cytotoxicity due to degradation of excess aluminium ions and limited
applications such as dental and orthopaedic applications where their properties are
particularly benecial.
Considering one more potential material from the transition group, nickel also has
potential for use in biomedical applications as implants, but they were found to be
very limited due to their allergic reaction observed in many of the individuals who
are treated for the same. Hence, it is ensured that before using nickel as an implant,
1

a previous medical history of the allergy reaction towards metals is to be taken into
consideration, whereas the most versatile material used in biomedical applications is
stainless steel. Stainless steel is a versatile and commonly used material for biomedi-
cal applications due to its excellent corrosion resistance, biocompatibility and good
mechanical properties. It is used in a wide range of medical devices that includes
orthopaedic implants, such as hip and knee replacements, as well as dental implants.
It is also used for some cardiovascular implants, such as stents and valves, and sur-
gical instruments, such as scalpels, forceps and clamps. It is also used for a variety
of other medical devices, such as needles, syringes and catheters, and sterilization
equipment, such as autoclaves and ovens. It is also used for laboratory equipment
and other medical equipment. The properties of the stainless steel include corrosion
resistance, biocompatibility, strength and durability and ease to clean and sterilize.
On the other side, other problems include wear and tear over time and inference for
medical imaging procedures due to their strong magnetic properties.
Cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) alloys are a class of materials that have gained signi-
cant traction in the eld of biomedical applications due to their remarkable combina-
tion of properties. These alloys exhibit exceptional corrosion resistance, high strength
and toughness, biocompatibility and wear resistance, making them ideal candidates
for various medical implants and devices. Few properties of these alloys include cor-
rosion resistance, high strength and toughness, biocompatibility and excellent wear
resistance. They have foreseen few applications such as orthopaedic implants, den-
tal implants, cardiovascular devices and surgical instruments. Alongside, they also
have amenability towards inducing bioactivity in the form of Osseo integration and
biodegradation.
Another interesting material tantalum is valued for its remarkable properties
that make it an ideal material for various implants and devices. Tantalum is con-
sidered biocompatible, meaning it is well-tolerated by the human body and has a
low risk of triggering adverse reactions or causing tissue damage. This property
makes it suitable for long-term implantation without the risk of rejection or inam-
matory responses. Tantalum also exhibits exceptional resistance to corrosion in
various bodily uids, making it a durable and long-lasting material for implants.
Its inertness prevents the release of harmful ions into the body, further enhancing
its biocompatibility. It also possesses high strength and stiffness, making it suit-
able for load-bearing implants, such as orthopaedic components. Its mechanical
properties can be tailored through alloying and processing techniques to match
the specic requirements of different applications. Tantalum has demonstrated the
ability to bond with bone tissue, a process known as Osseo integration. This prop-
erty promotes the stability and long-term success of bone implants, particularly in
orthopaedic and dental applications. Tantalum is radiopaque, meaning it is visible
under X-rays and other imaging modalities. This property allows for easy tracking
of implants during surgery and follow-up assessments, aiding in patient care and
monitoring implant performance. Based on various applications, these different
materials are used in versatile locations in the human body as implants as shown
in Figure1.1.
Alongside these metals, we shall discuss most common metal ions used as a
dopants in the bioactive glasses that are displayed in Figure1.2. These are used in

analogues to the bioactive glasses. However, a comprehensive list of the metals and
their applications towards biological applications can be inferred in Table1.1.

1.2 BIOACTIVE GLASSES

The spongy centre of the bone consists of stem cells that progenitors into mesenchy-
mal stem cells aiding in the repair, development and growth of the bone through the
supply of osteogenic cells [42]. When a biomaterial is implanted in the site of the
fracture or defect, it requires a delivery vehicle for the carrying of proteins to the
bone marrow where mesenchymal cells promote bone regeneration. The most abun-
dant protein in the bone is Type I Collagen, and interestingly, this is synthesized by
osteoblasts. However, there is a lot of disambiguation in the scientic text, whether
osteoblasts directly synthesize Type I Collagen or by forming precursors of osteo-
cytes. From our earlier understanding, osteocytes perform traverse control of ions
from minerals into bone via canaliculi, realizing that matured osteoblast differenti-
ated from osteoblasts will synthesize the Type I Collagen protein. One more strong

understanding is that the protein concentration is lower in interstitial uid present in
bone marrow and thus osteocytes participate in mineralization and osteoblasts par-
ticipate in bone strengthening. An understanding of ion behaviour in osteocytes and
osteoblasts can be realized from Figure1.3.
The biomechanics of the bone is controlled and monitored at a micro and some-
times at mesoporous scale through altering mineral and protein nutrient ions. It is
clinically evident that transition metals due to their advantage of electronic congu-
rations are best suitable for the protein ions, whereas alkali earth metals for min-
eral ions [43, 44]. The implants made of these materials in the current scientic
community are referred to as bioactive glasses. Bioglass 45S5 is the rst of its kind
in bioactive glass which received wide attention in terms of clinical compliance.

This bioglass is implanted at the fracture sight, where ion transport is disconnected
and growth factors’ accumulation will be very slow or sometimes may not be possible
if the intensity of crack magnitude is severe. Immediately the sodium and calcium ions
on the glass surface rapidly begin exchange of ions with the hydrogen ions present
in the physiological body uid particularly intracellular. This intracellular uid has
more charged macromolecules and high alkali ion concentrations that are referred to
as cytosol [46]. Cytosol is involved in various cell signalling, pertaining to the current
context; calcium and sodium signalling are few amongst others and enable exchange of
ions with hydrogen carriers to the bioglass comprising of calcium and sodium. This ion
exchange takes place until silane groups condense to the silica gel layer which forms
the bridge between the fracture mode as displayed in Figure1.3.
FIGURE1.2 Biologically active ions used for biological applications [41]
7Introduction to Bioactive Materials: Metals to Non-metals
Now calcium and phosphate (either from body uid or from simulated body uid
(SBF)) ions pleat at the silica gel and assimilate carbonate and hydroxyl ions from
the extracellular uid that forms a layer modifying the silica network with rich car-
bonated hydroxyapatite (HA). This phase, in coalescence, works with the native
tissue for the regeneration through exchange of ions and hence BAGs are referred
to as bio-coalescent materials. Most commonly observed phosphorus apatite min-
eral conguration is hydroxyl apatite, however few other apatite congurations such
as uorapatite and chlorapatite are also cited in the literature for tissue regenera-
tion applications. From the literature, it can be pursued that hydroxyl apatite shows
greater ability to form apatite compared to that of uorapatite but has lower osteo-
calcin synthesis [47]. Nevertheless, chlorapatite received contemplation in literature,
but it hasn’t shown much potential for clinical compliance. One must realize that
sodium used in the current bioglass assimilates with chlorine thus forming a salt,
sodium chloride, which actually tunes the bone resorption rate relative to bone for-
mation rate. Since the percentage of chlorine present is very minute, the chlorapatite
is ignored, but at an ionic scale its impact is decipherable. Hence, a bioglass combi-
nation with the addition of uorine and chlorine is also of equal importance where
biomimicking is desired. There is no such work cited in the literature as in contrast
to the bone tissue engineering applications in this combination and hence an under-
standing in this context can show some signicant potential. We shall now discourse
on the development of materials that exhibit bioactivity, biocompatibility and bio-
mimicking. It is understood by nature that the human body poses a large number of
materials in appropriate compositions with respect to the majority of elements within
the body. The term biocompatibility in context to the bone tissue engineering refers
to cytotoxicity and genotoxicity. Metals that are used as a constituent in process-
ing the bioglass should be biocompatible and bioactive in nature. Table1.2 displays
various classic bioglass congurations with different dopants as metals, and their
characteristic enhancements in terms of mechanical and biological parameters are
emphasized [47–57].
