Spray drying as a viable process to produce nano-hydroxyapatite/chitosan (n-HAp/CS) hybrid microparticles mimicking bone composition
In this work nano-hydroxyapatite/chitosan (n-HAp/CS) hybrid microparticles were prepared by spray drying following a methodology where, in a first step, aqueous nanodispersions of n-HAp in the presence of chitosan were produced by fast stirring at pH values below and above chitosan pKa (5.5 and 7.0,...
