Abstract

The permeability of polymeric scaffolds with defined pore micro-architecture and interconnectivity fabrication was analyzed. Three-dimensional (3D) microprinting is a computerized fabrication technique that can produce porous objects with highly complicated pore micro-architecture using data generated by computer aided design (CAD). CAD software was used to create the original scaffold models of the cubic orthogonal geometry with different pore size. Results show that hydraulic permeability depends on the micro-structure, such as pore size and pore interconnectivity, of polymeric scaffolds.
