In this work, the hybridization of bioactive glass (BG) particles with ZrO2 and silver nanoparticles (AgNP) by the sol-gel method was performed. Methyl meta-acrylate was polymerized to obtain polymethyl meta-acrylate (PMMA) by free radical polymerization to obtain novel bioactive 3D scaffolds by solvent-casting and gel-pressing technique. Results shown an average size around 40 mu m of the AgNP/ZrO2-BG particles with homogeneous morphology and porous composite scaffolds. In order to achieve the aims of this study, the microstructure and morphology of the obtained scaffolds were characterized by FTIR, XRD and SEM.
