Preparation of bioactive hydroxyapatite@halloysite and its effect on MC3T3-E1 osteogenic differentiation of chitosan film

Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) are widely used in biomedical field due to their special tubular structure and high reinforcing ability, while hydroxyapatite (HAP) is generally used in tissue engineering owing to its excellent biocompatibility and biological activity. In this work, [email protected] nanotubes([email protected]) hybrid was synthesized via a facial hydrothermal reaction process. The morphology, particle size, specific surface area,...
