▎ 摘　　要

As a new type of biodegradable implant material, zinc matrix composites have excellent potential in the application of biodegradable implants because of their better corrosion resistance than magnesium matrix materials. Our previous studies have shown that graphene nanosheet reinforced zinc matrix composites (Zn-GNS) prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS) have good mechanical properties and suitable degradation rate. However, the biocompatibility of zinc matrix composites is still a problem of concern. The cytocompatibility and blood compatibility of pure zinc and Zn-GNS composites in vitro were studied. The results showed that Zn-GNS composites had acceptable toxicity to MG-63 human osteosarcoma cells. In addition, the hemolysis rate of pure zinc and its composites were less than 3%, which has no adverse effect on adhered platelets, and has good antithrombotic and antiadhesion platelets properties. In conclusion, the addition of GNS did not adversely affect the biocompatibility of Zn-GNS composites, which indicated that Zn-GNS composites are a promising candidate for bone implantation.
