Abstract:
An amorphous calcium phosphate precursor phase, which forms by adding orthophosphoric acid to a calcium hydroxide suspension, is transformed into crystalline hydroxyapatite by introducing polymer solutions. The nanostructured composite films formed by a solvent casting technique from the concentrated hybrid suspension are characterised for structure and mechanical properties.
