Biosilicate^® scaffolds produced by 3D‐printing and direct foaming using preceramic polymers

Monolithic and powdered Biosilicate ® , produced by conventional glass‐ceramic technology, have been widely recognized as excellent materials for bone tissue engineering applications. In the current research, we focus on an alternative processing route for this material, consisting of the thermal treatment of silicone polymers containing micro‐sized oxide fillers, which offers a unique integration between materials synthesis and shaping.
