Article Citation Count: 12Production of the novel fibrous structure of poly(ε-caprolactone)/tri-calcium phosphate/hexagonal boron nitride composites for bone tissue engineering(Australian Ceramic Society, 2018) Ozbek, Burak; Erdogan, Barkin; Ekren, Nazmi; Oktar, Faik Nuzhet; Akyol, Sibel; Ben-Nissan, Besim; Gunduz, OguzhanNanofibrous 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.
