Abstract Natural silk fiber (SF) was introduced into the chitosan/nano-hydroxyapatite (CS/n-HA) system to fabricate a novel guided bone tissue regeneration (GBR) membrane. The effect of different treatment methods (degummed, un-degummed, or dissolved SF) and different contents of SF on the properties of the CS/n-HA composite membrane was investigated. Results demonstrated that the degummed SF/CS/n-HA composite membrane with a weight ratio of 2:6:2 possessed the highest mechanical strength, where SF supported the composite membrane as a skeleton frame in the form of primeval state, while the un-degummed SF and dissolved SF had weaker reinforce effect due to the poor interface or poor interaction between SF and CS, and the dissolved SF/CS/n-HA composite membrane displayed the fastest degradation. However, the three SF could all improve the cell biocompatibility of the CS/n-HA composite membrane. Conclusively, the study revealed that degummed SF could in situ reinforce the CS/n-HA composite membrane with a simple and green processing method, which would provide an important guidance significant to develop a novel GBR membrane.
