Abstract: Biocompatible poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) modified hydroxyapatite/poly(L-lactide)(PLLA) nanocomosites were prepared via solvent-mixing method. Their melting and crystallization behavior were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) and polarized optical microscopy(POM). The results show that the glass transition temperature of PLLA is 60.3 ℃ and that of the composite can reach 65.8 ℃. After isothermally crystallized at 140 ℃, the spherulites diameter of modified HA/PLLA composites was only 16.7%\_66.7% compared with that of PLLA and the melting point of the composite can rise to 184.4 ℃.
