The aim of this study was to prepare and characterize the novel Alginate (Alg)/Na + ,Cu 2+ (Zn 2+ ),CO 3 2− ‐containing apatite nanocomposite scaffolds, as well as to investigate their mechanical characteristics. During first stage, synthesized Na + ,CO 3 2− ‐ containing apatite‐type calcium phosphate was used as initial matrix for sorption of Cu 2+ and Zn 2+ from solutions with different molar concentrations. Then, the prepared Na + ,Cu 2+ /Zn 2+ ,CO 3 2− ‐ containing apatite was used for creation of Alg/phosphate composites and their mechanical properties were evaluated. Results showed that all samples have a high Young's modulus ((370‐747) MPa), and their compressive strength is in the range of (233‐255) MPa. All Alg/phosphate composites are characterized by large plastic deformation when compressed.
