    Production of the Novel Fibrous Structure of Poly(ε-caprolactone)/Tri-calcium Phosphate/Hexagonal Boron Nitride Composites for Bone Tissue Engineering

    Nanofibrous composites of the poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL), tricalcium phosphate (TCP), and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) with different compositions were manufactured by using an economical and non-complicated method called electrospinning. Produced fibrous structures showed no bead formation and had a clean surface. Characterization of the composites showed that particles were successfully mixed with polymer phase. High cell activity of SaOS-2 cells on the composites was observed with SEM images. In addition, fibrous scaffolds are biocompatible with human bone tissue and are highly degradable.
