Abstract

Porous Ormosil-type hybrid materials were synthesized by a sol-gel method starting from tetraethoxysilane and polydimethylsiloxane. The pore size of the hybrids were 300 ∼ 600 mm in diameter. The porous hybrids with Ca²⁺ ions deposited apatite particle on the pore surface when soaked in a simulated body fluid (Kokubo solution) for 3 days.
