Abstract EN
A synergetic effect between carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene on diopside (Di) scaffolds was demonstrated.
3D network architecture in the matrix was formed through the 1D CNTs inlaid among the 2D graphene platelets (GNPs).
The mechanical properties of the CNTs/GNPs/Di scaffolds were significantly improved compared with the CNTs/Di scaffolds and GNPs/Di scaffolds.
In addition, the scaffolds exhibited excellent apatite-forming ability, a modest degradation rate, and stable mechanical properties in simulated body fluid (SBF).
Moreover, cell culturing tests indicated that the scaffolds supported the cells attachment and proliferation.
Taken together, the CNTs/GNPs/Di scaffolds offered great potential for bone tissue engineering.
