POLYMER-INORGANIC NANOCOMPOSITES BASED ON CRYOGEL OF POLYVINYL ALCOHOL AND CARBONATE-BEARING CALCIUM HYDROXYAPATITE

Presents the results of synthesis and physicochemical analysis of carbonate-bearing calcium hydroxyapatite. Structure and properties of the obtained materials were characterized by using such methods as X-ray phase analysis, FTIR-spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, microindentation. The cryogel based on polyvinyl alcohol with the inorganic component content was obtained by several cycles of «freezing–thawing». The possibility of cryogel plates obtaining and using it’s for bone integrity recreation was demonstrated.
