Preparation of Magnetic Hydroxyapatite Whiskers and Study of Their Magnetic Response Behavior under Magnetic Field
The orientation of hydroxyapatite whiskers (HAw) is one of the keys to designing and developing bioceramics. In this study, magnetic nanoparticles of magnetite (Fe3O4) were loaded onto the surface of HAw using a hydrothermal method, successfully preparing magnetic HAw composites with excellent magnetic response characteristics. The physicochemical properties and biological performance of the magnetized HAw were systematically studied, and its orientation behavior in a weak magnetic field was explored. The results showed that magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles were successfully loaded onto the surface of HAw. The prepared magnetized HAw exhibited superparamagnetism at room temperature and had good magnetic response characteristics, which could be controlled using only a conventional permanent magnet. Combined with magnetic field-induced injection molding technology, the alignment direction imposed by the external magnetic field was effectively fixed. CCK-8 experimental results showed that the magnetized HAw was not cytotoxic.
