This article reports a new process chain for custom-made three-dimensional (3D) porous ceramic scaffolds for bone replacement with fully interconnected channel network for the repair of osseous defects from trauma or disease. Rapid prototyping and especially 3D printing is well suited to generate complex-shaped porous ceramic matrices directly from powder materials. Anatomical information obtained from a patient can be used to design the implant for a target defect. In the 3D printing technique…

IMPROVEMENT OF MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF BONE TISSUE ENGINEERED SCAFFOLDS THROUGH SINTERING AND INFILTRATION WITH BIOPOLYMERS

The hypothesis is that through infiltrating the ceramic scaffold, micropores are filled with the polymer leading to a composite with higher compressive strength, which will improve the mechanical properties of 3DP scaffolds through infiltration with biopolymers.
