Application of Low Cost Polyurethane (PU) Foam for Fabricating Porous Tri-Calcium Phosphate (TCP)

Porous tri-calcium phosphate (TCP) which is well-known for its purpose for artificial bone was prepared via sponge polymeric method by application of low cost polyurethane (PU) foam as a structural guide. TCP is mixed with distilled water to produce slurries and subsequently, PU foam with rectang...
