Preparation of novel bioactive nano-calcium phosphate–hydrogel composites

Preparation of novel bioactive nano-calcium phosphate–hydrogel composites

Nano-sized hydroxyapatite (nHA) and carbonate-substituted hydroxyapatite (nCHA) particles were incorporated into a poly-2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate/polycaprolactone (PHEMA/PCL) hydrogel at a filler content of 10 wt%. Fourier transform infrared absorption, transmission electron microscopy, x-ray diffr...
