Research Abstract |
Fully interconnected -TCP foam was able to be fabricated using the polyurethane foam method, whereby polyurethane foam coated with -TCP slurry was sintered at 1,450 1,550°C and that no quenching was performed. The -TCP foam had extremely high porosity ranging between 90 and 95% and exhibited reasonable compressive strength ranging between 50 and 250 kPa. Based on these initial findings, it is highly recommended that in vivo evaluation be carried out to explore the possibility and suitability of -TCP foam as a bone substitute and/or scaffolding material for tissue engineering.
