Physical properties and morphology of porous tantalum (photograph courtesy of “Chongqing Runze Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd”. Copyright 2020). (A) SEM micrographs of novel porous tantalum scaffold. Honeycomb pattern with pore diameters range from 200 to 500 μm in 400 magnification (a, scale bar = 500 μm). Microscopic pores (range from 1 to 10 μm) in 5000 magnification (b, scale bar = 1 μm) and 10,000 magnification (c, scale bar = 1 μm). Arrows indicate the pores in the millimeter level, circles indicate the interconnected microscopic pore in the micron level. (B) Industrial CT images for the tantalum rod, scale bar = 1 μm. (C) Morphology of novel porous tantalum powder and tantalum rod, scale bar = 1 mm.
