Effects of compressive ratio and sintering temperature on mechanical properties of biocompatible collagen/hydroxyapatite composite scaffolds fabricated for bone tissue engineering

A sponge template method was used to synthesize scaffolds from hydroxyapatite (HAp) using varying sintering temperatures and compressive ratios. The HAp scaffolds were fabricated with collagen (COL) or collagen/HAp particles under room temperature coating conditions. The microstructure and mechanica...
