Abstract

Highly porous bioceramics (porosity equal to 93–94 %) based on biogenic hydroxyapatite and sodiumborosilicate glass (40wt% of glass) was prepared by foam replication method at 700 °C and coated by graphene oxide using CVD method. Obtained bioceramics samples were studied by SEM, XRD and Raman spectroscopy. Phase composition, morphology, skeleton density, porosity and compression strength were evaluated. It was shown that biogenic hydroxyapatite in highly-porous bioceramics composition is stable and keeps hydroxyapatite phase without secondary phase formation after sintering with sodiumborosilicate glass as well as after application of CVD method for graphene oxide coating. Formation of graphene oxide for coated bioceramics was confirmed by XRD, SEM and Raman spectroscopy. Significant effect of graphene oxide coating on the porosity and skeleton density was not detected due to thin layer and low content of graphene oxide, but it allows 30 % increasing the compression strength of highly porous bioceramics.
