The present invention relates to the controllable degradation, filling-type complex bone implant of multivariant amino acid polymer-organic calcium/phosphorus salts, as well as to the preparative method thereof. The complex bone implant is consisted of multivariant amino acid polymers and medically acceptable organic calcium/phosphorus salts, while the content of organic calcium/phosphorus salts is 20-90% based on the total mass of composite material; the multivariant amino acid polymer is polymerized by ε-aminocaproic acid and at least two other amino acids, in which the molar content of ε-aminocaproic acid is at least 50% of the total molar quantity of amino acid polymers, while the amounts of other amino acids are at least 0.5% of the total molar quantity of amino acid polymers.

This disclosure describes bone tissues engineered from a casted bio-nanocomposite comprising chitosan crosslinked with citric acid to cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) where the amount of CNC used was as high as 29.4%. The nanocomposite showed proper characteristics of a bone mimicking structure. Different layers of the bio-nanocomposite showed an average pore size of greater than 26 micrometers in diameter; a porosity of about 90%, firm structure, maximum bioactivity as measured by deposition of calcium phosphate from simulated body fluid (SBF) solution (gaining weight more than 20% after 3 days), decreased rate of in vitro degradation in PBS (7-60 days), about 10% after 7 days, and acceptable bone cell viability (greater than 80%) in 2D and 3D cultures. The compression modulus of the bio-nanocomposites increased about 4 times and exhibited very small changes in size during the swelling process compared to control.
