| Research Abstract |
The aim of this research is to propose the design of highly functional 3D structured scaffold for rebuilding bone tissue and the process for its structure control to fabricate the new structured scaffold by using titanium and titanium alloys which have superior biocompatibility and strength. The design of highly functional 3D structured scaffold for rebuilding bone tissue was proposed. The titanium scaffold could be fabricated by investigating the fabrication conditions of direct laser melting process. And also, the effect of the third element on the biocompatibility and deformation behavior of the Ti-Nb alloys was investigated. The alloy having the elasticity near human bone could be fabricated by using pulse-current sintering method.
