Increase in mechanical properties of porous materials by polymer impregnation

  • Published:
Inorganic Materials: Applied Research Aims and scope

Abstract

The technological foundations are developed and the properties of porous composite materials with a ceramic framework reinforced by polymer impregnation and used as porous matrices in medicine to regenerate injured bone tissues are investigated. Composite materials have interconnected pores, porosity from 50 to 75%, and size of coarse pores up to 500 μm and fine pores down to 2 μm. Infiltration by chitosan allows one to increase the material compression strength by up to seven times and decrease strength sensitivity to porosity by up to two times.
