Magnesium Phosphate/Polybutylene Succinate Composite for Bone Repair

Article Preview

Abstract:

MP/PBS composite was fabricated by melt blending method. The weight loss ratio of MP/PBS composite reached 35.43 wt.% after immersion into phosphate buffered saline solution for 12 weeks, and the pH change from 7.40 to 7.72. The relative proliferation rate of cells on the materials increased with time and the proliferation of the cells on the MP/PBS composite was significantly higher than PBS. The results reveal MP/PBS composite has good biocompatibility, which satisfied the relevant criterion on biomaterials.
