Abstract
The purpose of this research is to discuss the preparation, characterization, and characteristics of lithium disilicate-fluorcanasite (LF) glass-ceramics in order to develop new dental glass-ceramics. A typical melt quenching method was used to produce the lithium disilicate (LD) and fluorcanasite (FC) types of glass. Following that, the LD and FC glass frits were combined and remelted in the following LD:FC ratios of 100:0, 0:100, 75:25, and 50:50 wt%, represented by S1, S2, S3, and S4, respectively. Based on the thermal analysis data, the glass-ceramic samples were fabricated through the heat treatment method. XRD and SEM were used to characterize the phase formation and microstructures of the prepared glass-ceramics. Archimedes' principle, three-point bending, and chemical solubility tests were used to determine density, flexural strength, and chemical solubility, respectively. The elastic modulus and fracture toughness of the selected samples were also evaluated using a Vickers hardness test. It was found that the S3 glass-ceramic sample (S3-789) has a longer LD crystalline phase than that of the S4 glass-ceramic sample (S4-788), resulting in a higher density and hardness. Furthermore, the S3-789 sample had by far the greatest Vickers hardness, elastic modulus, fracture toughness, and flexural strength, so it was chosen for future study to assess its bioactivity in SBF due to its superior mechanical properties and good machinability. The SBF bioactivity test validated the S3-789 sample's high bioactive performance. As a result, the S3-789 sample may be a good option for use as a novel material in dental applications. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd
