Bone tissue engineering has been developed in the past decades, with the engineering of
bone substitutes on the vanguard of this regenerative approach. Polycaprolactone-based …

Bioactive composites made of∽ 85 wt% poly (ε-caprolactone)(PCL) and∽ 15 wt%
nanometric hydroxyapatite (HA) produced from biogenic sources were 3D printed by an …

Bone is the second most common connective tissue worldwide and more than four million
bone grafts or substitutes are used annually to treat bone defects. Due to the restrictions of …

Bone substitute materials are placed in bone defects and play an important role in bone
regeneration and fracture healing. The main objective of the present research is fabrication …

Notwithstanding the advances achieved in the last decades in the field of synthetic bone
substitutes, the development of biodegradable 3D-printed scaffolds with ideal mechanical …

Their excellent mechanical properties, degradability and suitability for processing by 3D

In this study, three dimensional (3D) polycaprolactone/bio-derived hydroxyapatite
(PCL/BHA) composite scaffolds were fabricated by using a melt-deposition system (MDS) for …

Abstract 3D-printing is an efficient method of designing customised structures and producing
synthetic bone grafts appropriate for bone implants. This research aimed to manufacture a …

The use of composite materials, processed as 3D tissue-like scaffolds, has been widely
investigated as a promising strategy for bone tissue engineering applications. Also, additive …

Controlled pore size and desirable internal architecture of bone scaffolds play a significant
role in bone regeneration efficiency. In addition to choosing appropriate materials, the …
