Polyvinylidene fluoride/hydroxyapatite/β-tricalcium phosphate multifunctional biocomposite: Potentialities for bone tissue engineering

Abstract: Bioactive ferroelectric composites based on polyvinylidene fluoride, hydroxyapatite and βtricalcium phosphate have been synthesized and their structural, microstructural, bioactive, and ferroelectric properties are characterized. Structural and FTIR investigations showed the presence of the polar polyvinylidene fluoride (β 2) phase, while ferroelectric characterizations revealed remnant polarizations and coercive field, around 0.04C/cm 2 and 28 kV/cm, respectively, for these biocompatible samples.

“…The combination of natural CaPs, in general, and BCP, in particular, with other materials, in terms of biocompatible alloys, ceramics, and polymers, represents an alternative way towards the development of new biomaterials with improved performance and mechanical responses with the aim to mimic those of natural bones and tissues [95,105,110].…”

“…The as-obtained BCP powder was combined with a piezoelectric polymer, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), which is characterized by a high proliferation of osteoblast cells [112]. The composite powder was homogenized, compacted under uniaxial pressure of 114 MPa, and sintered at 170 • C in air for 1 h. The same combination, BCP+PVDF, following a similar protocol, was studied by Bonadio et al [110], who demonstrated the improvement of the bioactivity and consequently their potential use for bone-tissue engineering.…”

“…Piezoelectric polymers such as PVDF, PVDF-TrFE, PLLA, PHB alongside piezoelectric ceramics including BT, LN, LNKN, HA have been assessed for their osteogenic capability [36,37,148]. In particular, the last two years have seen a rise in the number of publications in this area and the promising results obtained point towards a clinical solution to the problem of orthopaedic regeneration [148,234,[264][265][266][267][268][269].…”

“…27 Piezoelectric and dielectric properties of collagen-nHA composites have been reported by Silva et al 28 These composites are proposed for applications in cellular growth and bone regeneration. Bonadio et al 29 reported a hybrid composite of hydroxyapatite and ⊎-tricalcium phosphate in a PVDF matrix. The composite has been observed to exhibit remnant polarization in a ferroelectric hysteresis loop confirming its piezoelectric nature.…”

“…Various elastomer–conductive filler combinations have been reported in the literature as efficient high dielectric materials. Li and co‐workers 30 studied the dielectric properties of PVDF/multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composites. Waterborne polyurethane, embedded with TiO 2 nanoparticles, has been demonstrated as a bio‐based electro‐active elastomer for structural health monitoring applications 31 .…”
