Several properties make PCL an ideal choice for tissue engineering:
Biocompatibility: PCL is well-tolerated by the body and does not elicit a significant immune response. Bioresorbability: PCL degrades over time into non-toxic by-products, eliminating the need for surgical removal. Mechanical properties: PCL provides sufficient mechanical strength and flexibility, making it suitable for load-bearing applications. Ease of fabrication: PCL can be easily processed into various shapes and structures, allowing for customized scaffold designs.
