Fabrication and Characterization of Scaffolds of Poly(ε-caprolactone)/Biosilicate® Biocomposites Prepared by Generative Manufacturing Process

Scaffolds of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and their biocomposites with 0, 1, 3, and 5 wt.% Biosilicate® were fabricated by the generative manufacturing process coupled with a vertical miniscrew extrusion head to application for restoration of bone tissue. Their morphological characterization indicated...
