Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The room temperature adsorption of acetonitrile (ACN) on two sol-gel glassy systems for biomedical applications (58S and 77S; composition: SiO -CaO-PO) was studied by in situ IR spectroscopy/adsorption microcalorimetry, and the influence of the chemical composition on the surface properties of the glasses was investigated. In order to highlight the role played by Ca and P species in modifying the surface properties of a silica matrix, some model systems were also investigated, namely: (i) a pure commercial amorphous silica; (ii) the same silica system, surface modified with dosed amounts of Ca and/or P species. Different effects were observed, depending on the metal (Ca) or non-metal (P) nature of the hetero-atoms. The contact of (perdeuterated) ACN with Ca surface species yielded a ν IR band at ∼2185 cm, assigned to Ca ← NCA coordinative interactions. The spectral position of the ν band is independent of the sample origin (either bioactive glass or Ca-doped silica), whereas population and energy distribution of the species formed depend (strongly) on both sample origin and Ca loading. Surface acidic properties of all systems increase significantly with Ca content, as witnessed by both adsorbed amounts and adsorption enthalpies. The zero-coverage values of the latter quantity are quite high for the 58S and 77S bioactive glasses (∼95 and ∼80 kJ mol, respectively) and for medium-high Ca-loaded silicas (∼80 and > 100 kJ mol for 8 and 16% CaO, respectively). ACN adsorption enthalpy on surface SiOH groups is close to/lower than the enthalpy of ACN liquefaction (30 kJ mol). In the case of the highest Ca surface loading, the increased ionic nature of the system induces a significant surface reactivity, never observed in the case of bioactive glasses. By contrast, P species do not affect significantly the surface acid/base properties of all silica-based systems, especially when Ca species are present also (in excess).
