3D Superelastic Scaffolds Constructed from Flexible Inorganic Nanofibers with Self‐Fitting Capability and Tailorable Gradient for Bone Regeneration

Repair of bone defects with irregular shapes or at soft tissue insertion sites faces a huge challenge. Scaffolds capable of adapting to bone cavities, generating stiffness gradients, and inducing osteogenesis are necessary. Herein, a superelastic 3D ceramic fibrous scaffold is developed by assembly of intrinsically rigid, structurally flexible electrospun SiO 2 nanofibers with chitosan as bonding sites (SiO 2 NF‐CS) via a lyophilization...
