Evaluation of physicochemical and mechanical properties with the in vitro degradation of PCL/nHA/MWCNT composite scaffolds

The fabrication of biodegradable magnetic poly(caprolactone)(PCL)/nanohydroxyapatite (nHA)/multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composite scaffolds by thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) for bone regeneration is reported in this study. The magnetism tests completed on the porous matrices pointed to their ferromagnetic behavior. Both in-vitro degradation and mechanical properties are studied over eight weeks in a phosphate buffered solution...
