PG - 1995-2008 LID - S0141-8130(22)00892-3 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.04.178 [doi] AB - The poly (3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB)/ball clay nanocomposites (B1-B10) were synthesized using solvent casting method with different weight percentage of ball clay in PHB matrix. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) showed maximum root mean square roughness (188.73 mum) for 10% ball clay loading. Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) showed establishment of intercalated structure and formation of hydrogen bond between ball clay and PHB matrix. Contact angle values (67.3 - 51.3 degrees ) exhibited that the nanocomposites (B1-B10) are more hydrophilic than neat PHB (70.30 degrees ). Thermogravimetric (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) revealed maximum T(max) (278 degrees C) and T(m) (175 degrees C) for the nanocomposite B10 (PHB/PEG/ball clay: 80%/10%/10%). Maximum tensile strength (38.21 +/- 0.15 MPa) and Young's modulus (1.74 +/- 0.016 GPa) was observed for B10 nanocomposite. The values of protein adsorption, platelet adhesion, PT, APTT and complement activation for B10 nanocomposites were 165 +/- 2 mug/cm(2), 72 +/- 3 x 10(9) platelets/cm(2), 23 +/- 1 s, 44 +/- 2 s, 102 +/- 2 mg/dL and 631 +/- 3 mg/dL, respectively. Hydroxyapatite formation was also observed for nanocomposite (B10) in in vitro simulated body fluid (SBF) study. Finally, the nanocomposite (B10) showed no harmful effect on MG-63 cells, indicating that they are physiologically safe. CI - Copyright (c) 2022 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
