Abstract

The conditions for producing nanocomposite fibers composed of calcium alginate, containing a hydroxyapatite nanoadditive were devised and the rheological, sorptive, and strength properties of these fibers, as well as their porous and supramolecular structure were subjected to analysis. It has been concluded that the presence of the HAp nanoadditive in the material of alginate fibers decreases their susceptibility to distortion in the drawing stage, which results in their tenacity properties being lower by 2cN/tex than of the fibers with no nanoadditive. The obtained nanocomposite fibers are characterised by a tenacity value exceeding 26 cN/tex, accompanied by high sorptive and water‐retention properties of 90% and the even distribution of the nanoadditive on the fiber surface. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
