The powder of Glass-Ionomer Cements was prepared through fusion and carbon nanotubes and bioactive glass were manufactured through fusion and added to the cement to improve its mechanical and bioactive properties. To evaluate the biological adaptation of manufactured composites, they were placed in simulated body fluid (SBF). Finally, the compressive strength test and erosion test showed that the mechanical properties of Glass-Ionomer Cement are two folds of those when 1% carbon nanotubes are used (P}, keywords = {Nanocomposites,Glass ceramics,Glass Ionomer Cement,carbon nanotubes,Bioglass 45S5}, url = {https://scientiairanica.sharif.edu/article_4017.html}, eprint = {https://scientiairanica.sharif.edu/article_4017_cf27abe512e2705d491d2fd5f14b3ac3.pdf} }
