We developed polylactide composite materials with calcium-containing fillers; in particular, calcium orthophosphate and calcium hydroorthophosphate. It is shown that the degree of crystallinity of filled and heat-treated polylactide materials increases. The elastoplastic properties of the created polylactide materials and their structure coefficient are determined by using the modulus-deformation method. We recorded the change in their modulus of deformation, modulus of elasticity, surface hardness, and thermomechanical characteristics.
