Abstract
Composite hydrogels in the system of sodium alginate–tricalcium phosphate (TCP) are studied. The gelation time, mechanical properties, and solubility of composite hydrogels are investigated in relation to the content of a reinforcing component such as TCP granules introduced in an amount of 10, 20, and 30 wt %.
