Microstructure and mechanical properties of silica hydrogels from sodium silicate solutions

Silica hydrogels from sodium silicate solutions show potential for composite bone scaffolds, but their mechanical properties are not fully understood. This study investigates how pH, waterglass concentration, and acid initiators affect the mechanical properties and microstructure of silica hydrogels...
