Silicate based bioceramics are promising candidates as biomaterials for tissue engineering. The combustion synthesis method provides control on the morphology and particle size of the synthesised material. This paper discusses the combustion synthesis of akermanite (Ca 2 MgSi 2 O 7 and Sr 2 MgSi 2 O...
