ABSTRACT
In the case of a large bone defect, the human endogenous electrical field is no longer sufficient. Therefore, it is necessary to support structural electrical bone scaffolds. Barium titanate (BT) has received much attention in bone tissue engineering applications due to its biocompatibility and ability to maintain charged surfaces. However, its processability is poor and it does not have the biological activity to promote mineralization, which limits its use in bone repair. In this paper, a composite bone scaffold with excellent piezoelectric properties was prepared by combining 20 wt% calcium silicate. The influence of the light curing process on the properties of the piezoelectric biological scaffold was investigated by comparing it with the traditional piezoelectric ceramic molding method (dry pressing). Despite the structural features of 3D printing (layered structure, pore features), the piezoelectric and mechanical properties of the scaffold are weakened. However, 3D-printed scaffolds can combine structural and piezoelectric properties, which makes the 3D-printed scaffold more effective in terms of degradation and antibacterial performance. In terms of cell activity, piezoelectric properties attract proteins and nutrients into the scaffold, promoting cell growth and differentiation. Besides, it is undeniable that the pore structure of the scaffolds plays an important role in the biological properties. Finally, the 3D printed scaffolds have excellent antimicrobial properties due to the redox reaction under piezoelectric effect as well as structural characterization.
