      <dc:description>The research developed in this work is structured in the following parts:&#xd;
Chapter 2. In this chapter, the physico-chemical characterization and mechanical&#xd;
properties of magnetic hydrogels containing sepiolite-magnetite particles are studied.&#xd;
First of all, in this chapter the synthesis of sepiolite (fiber-like shaped) clay particles&#xd;
covered by magnetite nanoparticles, carried out by the co-precipitation method, is&#xd;
described. Afterwards, the adsorption of alginate molecules onto the composite&#xd;
particles is checked by means of zeta potential measurements. In addition, the most&#xd;
relevant magnetic properties of the particles are depicted. Then, the preparation of&#xd;
alginate hydrogels and alginate/(clay-magnetite) ferrogels, by crosslinking of alginate&#xd;
molecules with calcium ions, is detailed. Finally, the rheological properties, in the&#xd;
absence and presence of external magnetic field, as well as the microstructural study&#xd;
of the different hydrogels obtained with embedded particles are presented.&#xd;
Chapter 3. This chapter includes a similar study to that of chapter 2, but in this case&#xd;
for suspensions and magnetic hydrogels containing montmorillonite-magnetite&#xd;
platelets.&#xd;
Chapter 4. In this one we describe an ex-vivo study, using different techniques, of&#xd;
the biocompatibility of the suspensions and ferrogels containing sepiolite-magnetite&#xd;
particles.&#xd;
Chapter 5 is devoted to remark the most relevant achievements attained and also&#xd;
the main conclusions drawn from this research work.&#xd;
Finally, chapter 6 includes the references cited along whole thesis.</dc:description>
