Table 2.

Comparison of calculated and measured values for compression strength of flock scaffolds.

Scaffold parameters (fiber length—flocking time) “Free fiber length” [mm] Calculated compression strength [kPa] Measured compression strength [kPa]
    1 mm—5 s  0.8–0.95     30–40     34 ± 7
    1 mm—15 s  0.8–0.95     40–50     36 ± 6
    3 mm—5 s  2.3–2.8     4–6     10 ± 3
    3 mm—15 s  2.3–2.8     6–10     25 ± 7
