Table 2.
Mechanical strength of bilayer hybrid scaffold was evaluated through Young’s Modulus and Tensile Strain. Result has showed increment in tensile strength and tensile strain with increasing concentration of nanocellulose. This study has showed that ColNc 10 has demonstrated the best result out of all scaffold.
Sample | Modulus [MPa] | Tensile Strength at Break [MPa] | Tensile Strain (Extension) at Break [%] |
---|---|---|---|
POC | 0.74 ± 0.17 | 0.37 ± 0.07 | 67.15 ± 2.48 |
ColNc 1 | 0.98 ± 0.30 | 0.28 ± 0.04 | 39.04 ± 8.17 |
ColNc 5 | 1.37 ± 0.29 | 0.42 ± 0.11 | 47.04 ± 0.95 |
ColNc 10 | 1.49 ± 0.21 | 0.57 ± 0.04 | 50.72 ± 10.89 |
