Abstract: Copper nanoparticles were synthesized by the borohydride method using polymer stabilizers (polyethylene glycol, polyvinylpyrrolidone). It was found by optical spectroscopy that copper nanoparticles obtained at a molar ratio Cu / polymer of 1:(3–6) have the highest stability (up to 1.5 months). It was shown that in the absence of polymer or at its low content (molar ratio Cu / polymer 1 : 1), the resulting nanoparticles aggregate and a precipitate forms containing copper and its oxides (Cu2O , CuO). By mechanical mixing of amorphized calcium phosphates (in powder and gel form) and copper nanoparticles (in the form of a colloidal solution), a powder composite containing Ca19Cu2H2(PO4)14 and Cu2PO4OH phases was obtained. It was shown that during the co-precipitation of calcium phosphates and copper nanoparticles, copper ions are incorporated into the crystal lattice of calcium phosphates with the formation of mixed acidic and medium salts.
Keywords: amorphized calcium phosphates, hydroxyapatite, copper nanoparticles, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyethylene glycol, composites
