Synthesis method : Ratio

The classical definition of the R ratio can’t be used in the study. Network precursors are also introduced by the polymer which counts only 3 alkoxy groups where TEOS has 4. Therefore, H2O and the catalyst are introduced relatively to the number of mole

Silica – polysaccharide hybrids for bone tissue regeneration

Objectives

The aim of the project is to create new bioactive porous hybrid scaffolds that fulfil all the criteria of a scaffold for bone regeneration Preparation and characterization of hybrids by incorporating in the sol-gel process natural polysaccharide polymers (Carrageenans, Alginates, Celluloses)

naturally occurring, biodegradable, nontoxic used in the food industry and in medic, in the field of drug delivery provide an alternative and novel method for introducing calcium into the hybrids

The principle challenge will be to produce hybrid materials with covalent bond between the organic (polysaccharide) and inorganic (silica) part of the hybrid with controllable degradation and mechanical properties matching the host bone

Carrageenans

Carrageenans are sulphated linear polysaccharides of D-galactose and 3,6- anhydro-D-galactose extracted from certain red seaweeds

Iota -carrageenan

Interesting for hybrids application

  • Iota-carrageenan produces soft and elastic gels
  • Carrageenans are anionic polyelectrolytes which gives

the posibility of Ca2+ to be incorporated in the hybrid network

Carrageenan Issues

  • Solubility problems
  • soluble only in water at 70oC; depending on the

molecular weight; 10 mg/ml maximum

  • Viscosity of solution
  • difficult to obtain homogenous gels
  • Modification with Si coupling agents is difficult due

to the solubility issues

  • modification with GPTMS could be performed only

in heterogenous conditions

  • the resultant product is insoluble

Issues and conclusions

  • Polymer concentration is not high enough to achieve suitable 1H and 13C NMR

signals

  • This is not clear if the covalent linkages are lost in the background along with the

polymer signal or is no covalent coupling occurring

  • The epoxy ring is not fully opened during fictionalisation of alginate at pH 5. The

main compounds detected are diol, dioxane and PEO.
