In this study, CEP, HTV-SR, and glass fiber-reinforced epoxy (GFRP) were subjected to AC corona aging using a multi-needle plate electrode. Surface morphology, chemical structure, and electrical properties were comprehensively evaluated. The results show that all three materials experienced progressive surface cracking and increased roughness during aging, leading to notable reductions in hydrophobicity, resistivity, and DC flashover voltage. Surface degradation was found to be more significant than bulk degradation. CEP maintained a denser microstructure containing carbonized residues and inorganic fillers, and exhibited less severe cracking compared with HTV-SR. FTIR and XPS analyses revealed that CEP underwent epoxy ring opening, accumulation of polar groups, and surface carbonization, accompanied by a marked decrease in the C/O ratio and deterioration of dielectric properties. In comparison, HTV-SR developed a protective silica-like layer through oxidative crosslinking, which helped preserve its structural integrity and insulation performance. GFRP suffered the most severe deterioration, including resin erosion and glass fiber exposure.

While bone has self-healing capabilities, large defects and non-union fractures often fail to completely regenerate, leading to long-term disability and the need for surgical intervention. Autologous bone grafts remain the gold standard for such procedures, but challenges such as limited donor availability and donor site comorbidity persist. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) presents an alternative approach for bone regeneration, using biomaterials, cells and growth factors that mimic the natural composition and structure of bone. Cell-derived decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM), particularly from mesenchymal stem/stromal cell (MSCs), is among the most promising biomaterials for BTE, as it closely mimics the composition of native bone ECM and provides immunomodulatory and trophic molecules that support bone regeneration. However, dECM's mechanical properties are often insufficient, requiring its combination with synthetic polymers to improve scaffold strength and structural integrity, critical to support hard tissues such as bone. This review explores the potential of MSC-dECM composite scaffolds developed for BTE, including 3D printed constructs, electrospun fibrous matrices, hydrogels and metallic scaffolds. It describes how the incorporation of MSC-dECM enhances the osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties of these scaffolds, leading to increased expression of osteogenic markers and calcium deposition <em>in vitro</em>, as well as enhanced bone formation <em>in vivo</em>.
