Original Abstract

Recently, a new generation of self-setting inks were developed, which avoid the high temperature treatments commonly needed to consolidate robocasted ceramic scaffolds. These inks are based on the hydrolysis of alpha tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) into calcium deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHA) and incorporate a hydrogel as printing additive. Nonetheless, until now the influence of the hydrolysis process on the properties of such caffolds has not been studied. This work explores the influence of several hydrolysis conditions on the nano/microstructure, composition and mechanical strength of robocasted scaffolds. Furthermore, different hydrolysis conditions were combined with different printed patterns to tailor in an independent manner the macro and nano/micro structure of the scaffolds.
