    Notes: Glass-ceramic A-W, containing crystalline apatite and wollastonite in a MgO—CaO—SiO2 glassy matrix shows high bioactivity as well as high mechanical strength, but other ceramics containing the same kinds of crystalline phases in different glassy matrices do not show the same bioactivity. In order to investigate the bone-bonding mechanism of this type of glass-ceramic, surface structural changes of the glass-ceramics after exposure to simulated body fluid were analyzed with various techniques. A solution with ion concentrations which are almost equal to those of the human blood plasma was used as the simulated body fluid, instead of Tris-buffer solution hitherto used. For analyzing the surface structural changes, thin-film x-ray diffraction was used in addition to conventional techniques. It was found that a bioactive glass-ceramic forms a Ca, P-rich layer on its surface in the fluid but nonbioactive ones do not, and that the Ca, P-rich layer consists of carbonate-containing hydroxyapatite of small crystallites and/or defective structure. These findings were common to those of Bioglass-type glasses. So, we conclude that the essential condition for glass and glass-ceramic to bond to bone is the formation of the surface apatite layer in the body environment but it is not essential to contain apatite within the material. Bioactivity of glass and glass-ceramic can be evaluated in vitro by examining the formation of the surface apatite layer in the simulated body fluid described above.

    Notes: A matrix effect correction is required to improve the accuracy of quantitative AES analysis. The correction includes terms involving the atomic density (n), electron back-scattering factor (R) and electron escape depth (L). Many schemes have been proposed by various people for corrections of the R and L terms. However, up to now, there have been no systematic investigations of the correction accuracy of the proposed schemes. We have evaluated the correction accuracy, based on measured intensity data for Au—Cu alloys of different compositions. Comparison was made between the observed intensity ratio K (=Iunk/Istd) and the calculated intensity, ratio K′ (= C(nunk/nstd)(Runk/Rstd)(Lunk/Lstd)), where C and I represent the concentration and intensity, respectively. The superscripts ‘unk’ and ‘std’ denote that the parameters are for unknown and standard specimens, here the pure elements. If the correction works well, the error Er (= K′ — K)/(K) will become smaller. Evaluations were carried out on three schemes for the R correction and on seven schemes for the L correction using the Au 239 eV, Au 2024 eV and Cu 920 eV transitions. The root mean square (RMS) of the calculated errors showed several per cent for the best case and 20-30% for the worst case. The RMS error varied a few per cent between schemes for the R correction but it varied ∼30% for the L correction.

    Notes: The Japanese VAMAS-SCA working group is composed of 19 institutes. Three kind of Au—Cu alloys (Au 75 at.-%-Cu 25 at.-%, Au 50 at.-%-Cu 50 at.-%, Au 25 at.-%-Cu 75 at.-%) were prepared, and these specimens, pure Au and pure Cu were distributed to the members of the VAMAS-SCA working group. The surface concentrations of these alloys were calculated from the Auger peak amplitudes in two ways. One method used the published relative sensitivity factors, and the other used pure Au and Pure Cu as the standard materials. The mean values of the surface concentrations calculated with the published relative sensitivity factors were almost the same as those calculated with the standard materials. This means that the published relative sensitivity factors are reliable to some extent. The error of the surface concentration calculated with pure Au and pure Cu as the standard materials lay between about 3% and 10%, and that with the relative sensitivity factors lay between about 7% and 20%. The calculated surface concentrations of Au were larger than the bulk concentrations of Au when the matrix effect was neglected.

    Notes: The Japanese VAMAS-SCA working group is composed of 19 institutes. Three kinds of Au-Cu alloys (Au25 at%-Cu75 at%, Au50 at%-Cu50 at%, Au75 at%-Cu25 at%) were prepared, and these specimens were distributed to the members of Japanese VAMAS-SCA working group and Auger peak amplitude ratios were measured to clarify the correlation factor of different types of spectrometers. The comparison was carried out by using the relative sensitivity factor for Au and Cu. The relative sensitivity factor for lower energy varied from spectrometer to spectrometer, but that for higher energy did not vary so much. Therefore, to carry out the inter-laboratory comparison of the data, the transfer of the data of peak amplitude at higher energy should be recommended.

    Notes: It has been proposed that the formation of a surface apatite layer in vivo on surface active ceramics is an essential condition for chemical bonding between ceramics and bone tissue. To clarify the difference in bone-bonding mechanisms between surface active ceramics and bioresorbable ceramics, two experiments were performed using plates of dense β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). First, plates of β-TCP were implanted subcutaneously in rats for 8 weeks. Surface change due to bioresorption was observed with scanning electron microscopy. Formation of the apatite layer on the surface was investigated using thin-film x-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared reflection spectroscopy. Second, plates of β-TCP were implanted in tibiae of rabbits for 8 and 25 weeks and subjected to the detaching test to measure bone-bonding strength. β-TCP bonded strongly to bone. Undecalcified sections of the interface of bone and β-TCP were examined with SEM-EPMA. However, by physicochemical methods, no formation of surface apatite layer was observed. These results suggest that β-TCP bonds to bone through microanchoring between bone and rough surface of resorbed β-TCP.

    Notes: Semicrystalline LaRC-TPI is known to be capable of recrystallizing to higher melting crystalline forms upon initial melting. The behavior of these different crystalline forms has not been studied before. The present study uses techniques of differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffractometry to investigate thes crystalline structural changes during recrystallization of this material. Semicrystalline LaRC-TPIs synthesized from three different laboratories are included in this work.

    Notes: The precise pressure dependence of apparent diffusion and permeation coefficients was measured by using a microcomputer system for collecting and treating permeation data for CO2 in glassy poly(ethylene terephthalate) below 1 atm between 15 and 40°C. The partial immobilization model was used to determine the dual-mode sorption and mobility parameters. The curves calculated with these parameters were in excellent agreement with experimental data. These parameters were also compared with sorption parameters obtained from measurements at 30°C. There was a small difference between the values of the parameters obtained from these permeation data and those from sorption data which we had previously obtained. Relations between this difference and the method of determination of the parameters are discussed.

    Notes: The two-dimensional crystal structure of poly(p-phenylene) is investigated by linkedatom Rietveld analysis of the x-ray diffraction powder profile. Two molecular chains are packed in a rectangular pgg unit cell (a = 0.779 nm; b = 0.551 nm) with a paracrystalline shift distortion along the chain axis. The molecular conformation is not rigidly planar; rotations between adjacent phenyl-ring planes in a molecule alternate with an angle of about 20°. The setting angle between the mean molecular plane and the a axis is 55.5°.

    Notes: Sorption kinetics and equilibria as well as permeabilities and diffusion time lags for CO2 in Kapton polyimide film have been studied at temperatures from 35 to 55°C and pressures up to 0.78 atm. The sorption/desorption cycles indicate that the diffusivity of CO2 increases with increasing local penetrant concentration in the polymer. Both the permeability and time lag decrease with increasing upstream CO2 pressure. All of these results are described well by theoretical expression based on the dual-mode theory of sorption and transport in glassy polymers.

    Notes: Hydroxyapatite induction by a synthesized pure silica hydrogel was examined in various simulated body fluids (SBFs) having different magnesium, calcium, and phosphate ion concentrations as well as pH values. The silica hydrogel generated biologically active apatite on its surface by taking up calcium and phosphorous ionic groups from a surrounding SBF that was prepared to emulate the human plasma in inorganic composition. The induction period for apatite nucleation on the surface of the silica was largely decreased with the addition of a small amount of the calcium or phosphate ions to the SBF and with an increase in pH, but increased with the addition of magnesium ion. Bioactivity of bioactive materials like Bioglass® and glass-ceramic A-W was well interpreted in terms of the rate of apatite formation reflected in these results. Moreover, the results provide the basic knowledge for designing new bioactive materials. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
