Figure 2. — Mechanical properties of 3D-printed PLCL scaffold. (a) Photo image showed the equipment (Instron 3400) used for testing the mechanical properties of 3D-printed PLCL scaffold and rat dorsal skin tissues at two positions. (b) The mechanical testing results of 3D-printed PLCL scaffold and rat dorsal skin tissues. (c) Mechanical testing model and results of rat dorsal skin tissues. (d) Mechanical testing model and results of 3D-printed PLCL scaffold. (e) SEM image of the horizontal section of the 3D-printed PLCL scaffold showed the size and structure of up-side-holes. (f) SEM image of the cross-section of the 3D-printed PLCL scaffold showed the size and structure of wall-side holes. (g) Semi-quantification of the holes in the 3D-printed PLCL scaffold compared with the designed hole areas. (h) Elastic testing results demonstrated that there was no any change found in the 3D-printed PLCL scaffold after 180° and 360° stretching test.
