Silver and copper oxidesdoped SiO2–CaO–P2O5 based bioactive glasses were obtained and structurally investigated taking into consideration their possible use as biomaterials for bone regeneration. The samples synthesized by the sol-gel method have shown the existence of a preponderantly amorphous structure, as indicated by the X-ray diffraction (XRD) data. The samples were further heat treated at 600 C and investigated by means of XRD, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and UV-vis spectroscopy. The XRD data revealed features that can be associated with theexistence of apatite like crystallization centers. UV-vis absorption spectra indicate the presence of a small amount of metallic silver in the glass matrix, while the FT-IR spectra of silver and copper doped SiO2–CaO–P2O5 samples shown common characteristics to the bioactive glasses.

Keywords: bioactive glasses, FT-IR, silver, copper
