Description
A new-generation of synthetic bone scaffold is tailored using a bricks-and-mortar approach from bioactive glass nanoparticles BGNps and customized polymers (PLA, poly (lactic acid), the mortar). Used as synthetic implants for substitutive and regenerative therapies targeting mandibular osteoradionecrosis (ORM). To shed light on the mechanisms behind the formation of the hierarchical structure of these scaffolds, the synthesis of BGNps was studied using in-situ SAXS at synchrotrons and thanks to a custom-built sample chamber, fast X-ray phase-contrast tomography operando experiments.
