Short fiber reinforced 3d printed ceramic composite with shear induced alignment.

ABSTRACT: This paper accounts for utilization of shear induced alignment method during ceramic stereolithography. Lateral oscillation mechanism, combined with 3d printed wall pattern, was employed to generate necessary shear to align fiber in desired direction. First, semicircular channel pattern was printed to assess the effect of difference between wall direction and oscillation direction on the fiber alignment. Then, flexural strength of ceramic matrix was tested with nickel coated carbon fiber and ceramic fiber reinforcements. The results demonstrated that the shear induced alignment further improves the flexural strength compare to randomly distributed samples. Flexural strength of aligned samples with 1.0 wt% carbon fiber loading was improved by ~90% compared to randomly orientated samples and by ~333% compared to unreinforced samples. Finally, fracture surface morphology of the flexural strength test specimens was evaluated. The main fracture mechanism was observed as fiber pull-out.

Project description:Background/Objective: Tissue engineering involves scaffolds, cells and growth factors, among which growth factors have limited applications due to potential safety risks and high costs. Therefore, an alternative approach to exogenously induce osteogenesis is desirable. Considering that osteogenesis and angiogenesis are coupled, a system of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and human bone mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) coculture is more biologically adapted to the microenvironment in vivo and can mediate osteogenesis and angiogenesis via paracrine signalling. Hence, in this study, a HUVECs/hBMSCs coculture system with appropriate cell and medium proportions was established. The substrate for the coculture system was a 3D-printed composite bioceramic scaffold (β-TCP/CaSiO3) based on a previous study. The aim of this study was to explore the potential of this system for bone tissue engineering.MethodsBioactive ceramic scaffolds for tissue engineering were fabricated via a 3D Bioplotter™ system. The coculture system for in vitro and in vivo studies consisted of direct contact between HUVECs and hBMSCs cultured on the 3D-printed scaffolds.ResultsThe proportions of HUVECs/hBMSCs and medium components were determined by cell viability, and the coculture system showed negligible cytotoxicity. CD31 secreted by HUVECs formed strings, and cells tended to aggregate in island chain-like arrays. Real-time cell tracking showed that HUVECs were recruited by hBMSCs, and the integrin expression by HUVECs was upregulated. Ultimately, osteogenic and angiogenic marker gene expression and protein secretion were upregulated. Moreover, the obtained bone tissue engineering scaffolds could induce early osteogenic protein secretion and capillary tube formation in nude rats.ConclusionThese bone tissue engineering scaffolds without exogenous growth factors exhibited the ability to promote osteogenesis/angiogenesis.Translational potential of this articleThe fabricated 3D-printed bioactive ceramic scaffolds could provide mechanical, biodegradable and bioadaptive support for personalized bone regeneration. In addition, the bone tissue engineering scaffolds exhibited the ability to promote osteogenesis/angiogenesis without the addition of exogenous growth factors, thus mitigating safety risks. Although application of the HUVECs/hBMSCs coculture system might be a time-consuming process, further development of cord blood storage could be beneficial for multicell coculture.
