In situ synthesis and characterisation of chitosan/nanohydroxyapatite composite (IR)

This study aimed to synthesize and characterise the homogenous chitosan/hydroxyapatite (CS/HA) composite by in situ precipitation method. The optimum ratio of chitosan/hydroxyapatite composite was studied by varying the concentration of chitosan, orthophosphoric acid (H3PO4) and calcium nitrate (Ca(...

The optimum ratio of chitosan/hydroxyapatite composite was studied by varying the concentration of chitosan, orthophosphoric acid (H3PO4) and calcium nitrate (Ca(NO3)2.4H2O) used in this formulation.

Scanning electron microscopy analysis on the composite surface revealed that CS/HA composite with 45/55 ratio exhibited particles with needle like shape with cross-section of 5.41 nm and length of 37.2 nm distributed in the matrix.
