Abstract

Mechanical and magnetic properties of composites based on biogenic hydroxyapatite modified with magnetite (1; 5; 25 and 50 wt%) and chitosan are studied. An increase in the content of magnetite in the composite from 1 to 50 wt% leads to a slight decrease in porosity (from 45 to 38%) and to a significant increase in compressive strength and Young’s modulus (in 7 times with the addition of magnetite obtained by chemical precipi­tation and in 3 times with the addition of magne­tite obtained by thermolysis), compared to pure hydroxyapatite. With an increase in the amount of magnetite, regardless of its type (synthesis method), the magne­tic properties of composites are also impoved. Taking into account the mechanical properties which are close to porous human bone and magnetic properties sufficient for hyperthermia treatment, magnetotherapy or targeted drug delivery, the obtained biogenic hydroxyapatite–magne­tite–chitosan composites are promising in biomedicine.
