Abstract
Barrier membranes are normally employed in guided bone regeneration (GBR) procedures to facilitate bone tissue regeneration at the defect site. Despite being a suitable material for this purpose, polycaprolactone (PCL) is limited in clinical use due to its low degradation rate, inadequate wettability and bioactivity, and poor mechanical properties. This study explored TiC/TiO2/SrCO3-coated carbon black particles (TSrCB), a newly introduced bioactive nanocomposite agent, incorporated into PCL matrices as alternative barrier membranes for GBR. The research investigated the impact of TSrCB on the structural, physical, mechanical, thermal, and biological properties of PCL matrices. TSrCB particles were synthesized via molten salt synthesis and hydrothermal process before being incorporated into PCL for membrane fabrication using a solvent casting technique. Varying particle contents were tested. Results showed that adding TSrCB particles into PCL improved mechanical properties, degradation rate, and biological performance, including cell proliferation, adhesion, and protein synthesis in the nanoparticles membranes. Significant enhancement in physical, mechanical, and biological functions was noticed with higher TSrCB contents. The membrane with 20 % particle content was identified as a promising candidate for GBR.
期刊介绍:
Ceramics International covers the science of advanced ceramic materials. The journal encourages contributions that demonstrate how an understanding of the basic chemical and physical phenomena may direct materials design and stimulate ideas for new or improved processing techniques, in order to obtain materials with desired structural features and properties.
Ceramics International covers oxide and non-oxide ceramics, functional glasses, glass ceramics, amorphous inorganic non-metallic materials (and their combinations with metal and organic materials), in the form of particulates, dense or porous bodies, thin/thick films and laminated, graded and composite structures. Process related topics such as ceramic-ceramic joints or joining ceramics with dissimilar materials, as well as surface finishing and conditioning are also covered. Besides traditional processing techniques, manufacturing routes of interest include innovative procedures benefiting from externally applied stresses, electromagnetic fields and energetic beams, as well as top-down and self-assembly nanotechnology approaches. In addition, the journal welcomes submissions on bio-inspired and bio-enabled materials designs, experimentally validated multi scale modelling and simulation for materials design, and the use of the most advanced chemical and physical characterization techniques of structure, properties and behaviour.
Technologically relevant low-dimensional systems are a particular focus of Ceramics International. These include 0, 1 and 2-D nanomaterials (also covering CNTs, graphene and related materials, and diamond-like carbons), their nanocomposites, as well as nano-hybrids and hierarchical multifunctional nanostructures that might integrate molecular, biological and electronic components.
