Chitin and chitosan have been extensively investigated as a matrix of organic/inorganic composite. Barium, one of the radiopaque inorganic materials, can provide chitosan with radiopaque property by blending of chitosan and BaSO4. The filtered and deaerated chitosan/BaCl2solutions were extruded into NaOH and Na2SO4coagulation bath through a nozzle by gear pump. BaSO4was synthesized by the reaction between BaCl2and Na2SO4in the coagulation bath, in which acidic chitosan solution was also solidified at the same time. In XRD, the introduction of BaSO4into chitosan fibers reduced the inherent peak of chitosan fibers. In angiographic observation, chitosan/BaSO4hybrid fibers exhibited the clear contrast images which become clear with an increase in BaSO4content.
