Development Of Carbonated Hydroxyapatite/ Poly(L-Lactide)/ Poly(Vinyl Alcohol) Biocomposites
Nanosized B-type carbonated hydroxyapatite (CHA) was successfully synthesized through nanoemulsion method, by both dropwise (DW) and direct pouring (DP) techniques. The CHA powders obtained by DP method contained higher CO3 2- content with smaller near-spherical size, as compared to the one by DW wi...
