Replication of annulus fibrosus through fabrication and characterization of polyurethane and cellulose nanocrystal composite scaffolds
This study sought to obtain a simple scaffold for annulus fibrosus (AF) repair or replacement using a combination of polyurethane (PU) reinforced with cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). Composites containing up to 20 wt% CNCs were solvent casted and fabricated into ribbons and radially layered structure...
