Fabrication and characterization of biocomposite scaffold using selective laser sintering
Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) is a hydrophilic polymer with potential applications for bone and cartilage repair while hydroxyapatite (HA) resembles closely to the calcified tissue in human bodies. In this work, porous PVA/HA scaffolds were designed using computer aided design (CAD) software and then f...
