Poly(acrylic acid) (PAAc) grafted poly(ethylene) (PE) (PAAc‐g‐PE) film‐apatite or calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) composite materials were prepared by an alternate soaking process, which simply forms apatite or CaCO 3 on the polymer materials by alternate soaking in Ca 2+ ‐ and PO 3− 4 ‐ or CO 3 2− ‐containing solutions. X‐ray diffraction analysis of the composite films indicated the presence of hydroxyapatite or CaCO 3 on the film. Scanning electron microscopic observation revealed that the whole surface of the film was covered by the apatite or CaCO 3 . Cell compatibility tests of the apatite‐ or CaCO 3 ‐coated film suggested that the greater number of cells adhered on the films and that the cell proliferation properties were extremely greater on the films. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
