Biodegradable hydroxylapatite-magnesium and calcium metallic matrix composite

Biodegradable hydroxylapatite-magnesium and calcium metallic matrix composite

Abstract

The invention relates to a biodegradable hydroxylapatite-magnesium and calcium metallic matrix composite, belonging to the field of biomedical materials. The material of the invention is composed of the composite of magnesium-calcium alloy and hydroxylapatite particles, the components and mass percent thereof are: 0.01-5% of Ca, 0-1% of Zn and Mg as the balance; the mass ratio of the hydroxylapatite to magnesium-calcium alloy is 0.01-50:100. In the invention, powder metallurgic method is adopted. The material matrix of the invention has close bonding with strengthened nano particles which areevenly distributed. The composite of the invention can be biologically degradable and has fine mechanical property and biological activity, and wide application prospect in medical material field such as repairing impairment of scaffold for bone tissue engineering, fixed fasteners within bones and weight-bearing parts of bones.
