| Abstract: | This study systematically engineers Ca-Mg-Si bioceramics with tunable phase compositions by modulating synthesis temperature and evaporation kinetics. A controllable framework to transition from single-phase diopside (D) to multi-phase systems incorporating akermanite (DA) and merwinite (DAM) was established. The results demonstrate that pure diopside ensures superior mechanical integrity with a high hardness of 2918 ± 89 MPa and low porosity (6.29 ± 1.01%). Strategically incorporating secondary phases allows for fine-tuning degradation; notably, dual-phase DA ceramics maintained robust structural stability with a low hardness reduction rate of 11.6% after 28-day SBF immersion, while exhibiting superior bioactivity with 5-10 μm HAp clusters completely masking the substrate. In contrast, rapid ion release from DAM groups favored amorphous precursors, hindering mature HAp crystallization. Biological assays with MC3T3-E1 cells confirmed that D and DA groups supported over 70% viability and significantly enhanced late-stage mineralization compared to the control. This research provides a definitive phase-distribution map, offering a precise guide for fabricating bioceramic scaffolds that balance high densification with optimized osteoinductive performance for bone tissue engineering.
