Abstract:In this study, the deposition of apatite on the surface of the glasses with a composition of 22.25Na2O–13.5CaO–2.5P2O5–6.75CaF2–(55−3x) SiO2–xSi3N4 (x is the no. of moles of Si3N4) (where x = 0-4), was studied to examine the influence of nitrogen content on their properties, bioactivity and viability. It was established that density, glass transition temperatures, Young’s modulus of elasticity, Vicker’s microhardness and fracture toughness increased significantly with increasing nitrogen concentration.
