Characterization of Photo Biocomposites for Application in Biomedical Materials

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to perform material characterization of photo biocomposites materials consists of hydroxyapatite (HA) as a filler, (tri [ethylene glyco dimethacrilate (TEGDMA (Sigma Aldrich)) as a matrix; Camphorquinone (Sigma Aldrich) as a photoinitiator; and shellac as a coupling agent. Four ingredients then made two mixtures. The first mixture was the mixing of TEGDMA and camphorquinone and the second was shellac coated HA. Two of mixtures then were mixed to be one solution and was stirred in magnetic stirrer for 1 hour. The solution was poured into a mold and was activated by visible blue light 410 500 nm for 40 seconds in order to be polimerization processes. Materials were characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) and Scanning Elektron Microscope (SEM). The materials structure were dense. This material has potential as an implant material for medical purposes.
