Crystallinity and Reinforcement in Poly-L-Lactic Acid Scaffold Induced by Carbon Nanotubes

Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA) is a bioabsorbable implant material due to its favorable biocompatibility and inherent degradability, while the insufficient mechanical strength hinders its further bone repair application. In present work, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were introduced into PLLA scaffolds fabrica...
