Abstract:Abstract.A uniform CNTs coating on highly porous nanofibrous and biodegradable PLLA scaffolds, intended for tissue engineering, by the electrophoretic deposition (EPD) technique. The morphologies before and after EPD of CNT coating were investigated by SEM. The mechanical properties were also measured and the EPD mechanism was discussed. The negatively charged CNTs enforced by the electric field moved towards the anode through the gaps of PLLA nanofibers of the scaffolds, where they interwined with PLLA nanofi… Show more
