Abstract
Following the quest for new composite biomaterials for bone tissue engineering, this work presents the processing of new nanocomposite made of polycaprolactone matrix and wollastonite particles. Wollastonite nanopowder was obtained by thermal treatment of polymethyloxosilane resin mixed with silica and calcium hydroxide. Bioactive character of the ceramic nanopowder was verified in simulated body fluid (SBF). The apatite formation on...
