Abstract: The multiphase calcium phosphate foam ceramics, represented by β -tricalcium phosphate ( 65%) and β -calcium pyrophosphate ( 25 %),including hydroxyapatite (5 %) and α -tricalcium phosphate (5 %), with 60–64 % porosity and a through architecture of polyurethane foam was obtained. The application of a layer of hydroxyapatite led to an increase in the content of hydroxyapatite to 25 %, α -tricalcium phosphate to 40%, and an increase in static strength to 0,03 MPa with a decrease in porosity to 49%. The application of the second layer of hydroxyapatite promoted an increase in the content of hydroxyapatite to 40%, the static strength reached 0,05 MPa at a porosity 40 %. The bioapatite formation in the shape of «foam spheres» with a size from 2 to 10 μm occurred in the process of modifying all types of foam ceramics in a SBF solution during 21 – 28 days. The modified calcium phosphate foam ceramics enriched with α -tricalcium phosphate and hydroxyapatite, was characterized by the maximum static strength 0,08 MPa at a porosity 38%.

Keywords: calcium phosphate foam ceramics, hydroxyapatite, polyurethane foam, tricalcium phosphate, SBF (Simulated body fluid), bioapatite
