In the frame of a project aiming to the improvement of the properties of biodegradable polyester-based devices designed for bone regeneration, we have prepared and characterized novel composites based on poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and nanohydroxyapatite (HA). In particular, in this paper we report the preparation, the morphology and the rheological properties of nanocomposites obtained with PCL and its less hydrophobic derivative, PCL-MAGMA (maleic anhydride (MA)-glycidylmethacrylate (GMA)] including different amounts of nanohydroxyapatite.

Abstract
In the frame of a project aiming to the improvement of the properties of biodegradable polyester-based devices designed for bone regeneration, we have prepared and characterized novel composites based on poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and nanohydroxyapatite (HA). In particular, in this paper we report the preparation, the morphology and the rheological properties of nanocomposites obtained with PCL and its less hydrophobic derivative, PCL-MAGMA (maleic anhydride (MA)-glycidylmethacrylate (GMA)] including different amounts of nanohydroxyapatite.File in questo prodotto:
