Journal Article
Zhu, C., Ahmed, I., Parsons, A. J., Wang, Y., Tan, C., Liu, J., …Liu, X. (2018). Novel bioresorbable phosphate glass fiber textile composites for medical applications. Polymer Composites, 39(S1), E140-E151. https://doi.org/10.1002/pc.24499

A manual bench-top inkle-type loom was designed to enable hand woven textiles. These PGF textiles, along with unidirectional (UD) fiber mats made from the same batch of yarns, were utilized to manufacture fully resorbable textile composites (T-C), un...

Compositional dependency on dissolution rate and cytocompatibility of phosphate-based glasses: effect of B2O3 and Fe2O3 addition (2017)
Journal Article
Sharmin, N., Gu, F., Ahmed, I., & Parsons, A. J. (2017). Compositional dependency on dissolution rate and cytocompatibility of phosphate-based glasses: effect of B2O3 and Fe2O3 addition. Journal of Tissue Engineering, 8, 204173141774445. https://doi.org/10.1177/2041731417744454

The unique property of phosphate-based glasses and fibres to be completely dissolved in aqueous media is largely dependent on the glass composition. This article focuses on investigating the effect of replacing Na2O with 3 and 5 mol% Fe2O3 on cytocom...

Structure–properties relationships in fibre drawing of bioactive phosphate glasses (2017)
Journal Article
Muñoz-Senovilla, L., Muñoz, F., Tricot, G., Ahmed, I., & Parsons, A. J. (2017). Structure–properties relationships in fibre drawing of bioactive phosphate glasses. Journal of Materials Science, 52(15), 9166-9178. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10853-017-0773-7

New bioactive phosphate glasses suitable for continuous fibre production are investigated in this work. The structure of both bulk and fibres from Na2O–CaO–MgO–P2O5 glasses has been studied by means of Raman and 31P and 23Na nuclear magnetic resonanc...
