Study of preparation and structure of nanofibers of inorganic and organic biomaterials
Ručková, Jana ; Částková,, Klára (referee) ; Cihlář, Jaroslav (advisor)
The aim of this Master’s thesis is to investigate the preparation and structure of nanofibres of inorganic and organic biomaterials. Nanofibres of polycaprolactone, chitosane and their composites with hydroxyapatite particle were prepared by centrifugal force spinning process, which uses centrifugal forces for nanofibres spinning. Designed nanofibres can be used in bone tissue engineering. Experimental activity has started with synthesis of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles and preparation of polymer solutions and composite suspensions at different concentrations. The solutions and the suspensions were characterized by density and viscosity which were changed in dependence on temperature and polymer concentration. The solutions and the suspensions were spun at varying speeds and using two different sizes of collectors. The dependence of spinneret head revolution speed, size of collectors and polymer concentration on nanofibres diameter was studied. Biological activity of polycaprolactone and hydroxyapatite/polycaprolactone nanofibres was tested by means of SBF.

Thin-film geopolymeric plasters for exterior application
Ručková, Jana ; Opravil, Tomáš (referee) ; Šoukal, František (advisor)
This thesis is dealing with preparation of exterior thin-layer geopolymer plaster where the effect of supplement of various types of superplasticizers in their different amounts on the quality of geopolymer plaster is studied. The objective of this work is to determine suitable type of superplasticizer which would improve rheological quality of fresh plaster mix, its adhesion to the surface and last but not least would preserve good mechanical qualities of geopolymer binder. In the experimental part initially test subject were prepared from meta-kaolin, water, water-glass, sand and with supplement of various types of superplasticizers in various amounts. These test subjects were tested for compressive and flexural strength. Further workability and adhesion to the surface of these plaster pastes was observed. Geopolymer pastes were also subjected to calorimetric comparison of kinetic processes occurring during solidification and hardening. In order to identify the exact composition of superplasticizers used as rheological modifiers, the infra-red spectrometry of these substances was performed. There was a need to specify the water-glass in more detail as well, elemental analysis was performed on it on radiographic fluorescent spectrometry. To closer identify the structure and distribution of superplasticizer in geopolymer paste the pictures of the mix which was the most suitable for use for exterior thin-layer geopolymer plasters were made on scanning electron microscope. On the same mix radiographic diffraction on the powder samples was also performed which served for phase analysis.

Processing and properties of porous bioceramic materials
David, Jakub ; Ručková, Jana (referee) ; Novotná, Lenka (advisor)
Bachelor thesis is focused on the study of bioceramic porous materials. The theoretical part is divided into three parts. The first part describes biomaterials, their division and use in bone tissue engineering. The second part deals with the requirements of bioceramic support systems (scaffolds). The third section describes methods for the porous structures production. The effort of the practical part was to prepare by method of direct foaming bioceramic porous materials based on calcium phosphate. It studied mainly the affect of the suspension composition on the final properties of the synthesized material. Morphology of materials was also evaluated using scanning electron microscopy. Degradability of materials in simulated body fluid was tested in terms of biological properties.
