Characterization of hydroxyapatite/polypyrrole/poly (caprolactone) based solvent cast thin films
This study addressed the fabrication of thin films composed of Polypyrrole (PPy), hydroxyapatite (HA) and poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL) via solvent casting method. The polymer and composite films were subsequently characterized in terms of morphology, wettability and water uptake properties using diff...
