3D Printing of Biocompatible Supramolecular Polymers and their Composites

摘要: A series of polymers capable self-assembling into infinite networks via supramolecular interactions have been designed, synthesized, and characterized for use in 3D printing applications. The biocompatible their composites with silica nanoparticles were successfully utilized to deposit both simple cubic structures, as well a more complex twisted pyramidal feature. found be not toxic chondrogenic cell line, according ISO 10993-5 10993-12 standard tests the cells attached demonstrated by confocal microscopy. Silica then dispersed within polymer matrix, yielding composite material which was optimized inkjet printing. hybrid showed promise preliminary facilitate deposition structure.
