摘要

The present work is being carried out to analyze the capacity and behavior that a bioceramic with a graphene oxide matrix and metallic oxides (TiO2, Al2O3) can provide, as a possible application in the field of biomedicine. First, graphene oxide was obtained from waste from endemic plants of the desert region: Candelilla (Euphorbia antisyphilitica), Lechuguilla and Gobernadora (Larrea tridentata). For this, small stems of Candelilla were extracted, ground until reaching the optimal size and then introduced into a muffle at 300 °C for calcination. Metallic oxides such as MgO, Al2O3 and CaO were obtained via reverse flotation from industrial blast furnace slag waste. The materials obtained were characterized by different techniques such as RAMAN spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The biocompatible effects of bioceramic, as well as its chemical and mechanical properties, were evaluated by carrying out different studies using the corresponding laboratory equipment.
