摘要
Bone defect repair still represents a challenging issue in clinic. Injectable composite materials for bone repair with good porosity and in situ solidification of arbitrary shape have shown great advantages in the treatment of clinical irregular bone defects. In this study, injectable porous nano hydroxyapatite/polyurethane (nHA/PU) composite scaffolds were fabricated with two-component design and using water as foaming agent. Furthermore, the morphology, chemical composition, internal structure, mechanical properties and curing time of the fabricated scaffold were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X ray diffraction (XRD), mechanical testing and Gilmore needle testing. The results showed that the injectable nHA/PU composite porous scaffolds were successfully prepared. The scaffolds had high porosity and good pore connectivity. The pore size distribution was 100-700μm, which was suitable for the growth of cells and tissues into the pores. The addition of 20% nHA significantly improved the mechanical strength of the PU porous scaffolds but reduced the porosity of the scaffolds. The injectable scaffolds solidified in 8h, which was suitable for clinical operation. The injectable nHA/PU composite porous scaffold prepared in this study has great potential in the field of irregular bone defect repair. © 2021, Chemical Industry Press Co., Ltd. All right reserved.
