Effects of alkali pretreatment of silk fibroin on microstructure and properties of hydroxyapatite–silk fibroin nanocomposite

open access: yesJournal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 2004
Nanocomposites comprising hydroxyapatite (HAp) and silk fibroin (SF) were synthesized from Ca(OH)2 suspension co-dispersed with SF fine particles and H3PO4 solution via a wet-mechanochemical route. The SF particles were modified with an alkali solution to increase contact points between HAp phase and SF matrix. HAp crystallites grow more preferentially
