Great Potential Application

Biocomposite scaffolds of poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), and hydroxyapatite (HA) nanoparticles were fabricated by gas-foaming and particle-leaching technique. The structure, surface morphology, and some properties of these PLGA/MWNTs/HA composites were evaluated. MWNTs and HA were evenly scattered in the scaffolds. The porosity of scaffols were decreased when the content of MWNTs increased to 1wt%. The mechanical strength of scaffols can be strengthened by the the addition of 1wt% MWNTs. The PLGA/MWNTs/HA biocomposite scaffolds have the great potential application in bone tissue regeneration.
