Table 1.

Composition and Ca/P ratio, after sintering at 1,085°C, for the scaffolds printed from water and IPA gels and for the coated IPA scaffolds

Scaffold reference Scaffold composition Scaffold Ca/P ratio Total porosity Compressive strength
Water HA/β-TCP 51/49 1.59 72.3 vol% ± 0.7 5.3 MPa ± 2.9
IPA β-TCP/β-DCPP 72/28 1.36 73.3 vol% ± 0.8 6.4 MPa ± 2.2
IPA coated β-TCP/β-DCPP 82/18 1.41 66.0 vol% ± 1.1 12.0 MPa ± 0.6

Total volume porosity (vol%) and compressive strength of the scaffolds are also reported
