What is it about?
The aim of this research was to develop and characterize a novel stratified porous scaffold for future uses in bone tissue engineering. In this study, a calcium silicophosphate porous scaffold, with nominal composition 29.32 wt% SiO2 – 67.8 wt% CaO – 2.88 wt% P2O5, was produced using the sol-gel and polymer replication methods.

Why is it important?
The result showed highly porous stratified calcium silicophosphate scaffolds with micro and macropores interconnected. Also, the material has a diametrical strength dependent on the number of layers of the stratified scaffolds and the sintering temperature.
