Freeze Casting of Porous Hydroxyapatite Scaffolds. I. Processing and General Microstructure Qiang Fu,1 Mohamed N. Rahaman,1 Fatih Dogan,1 B. Sonny Bal2 1 Department of Materials Science and Engineering, University of Missouri-Rolla, Rolla, Missouri 65409 2 Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Missouri-Columbia, Columbia, Missouri 65212 Received 24 May 2007; revised 10 September 2007; accepted 1 October 2007 Published online 20 December 2007 in Wiley InterScience (). DOI: 10.1002/jbm.b.30997 Abstract: Freeze casting of aqueous suspensions on a cold substrate was investigated as a method for preparing hydroxyapatite (HA) scaffolds with unidirectional porosity. In the present paper, we report on the ability to manipulate the microstructure of freeze-cast constructs by controlling the processing parameters. Constructs prepared from aqueous suspensions (5–20 volume percent particles) on a steel substrate at 2208C had a lamellar-type microstructure, consisting of plate-like HA and unidirectional pores oriented in the direction of freezing. Sintering for 3 h at 13508C produced constructs with dense HA lamellas, porosity of 50%, and inter-lamellar pore widths of 5–30 lm. The thickness of the HA lamellas decreased but the width of the pores increased with decreasing particle concentration. Decreasing the substrate temperature from 2208C to 21968C produced a finer lamellar microstructure. The use of water-glycerol mixtures (20 wt % glycerol) as the solvent in the suspension resulted in the production of finer pores (1–10 lm) and a larger number of dendritic growth connecting the HA lamellas. On the other hand, the use of water-dioxane mixtures (60 wt % dioxane) produced a cellular-type microstructure with larger pores (90–110 lm). The ability to produce a uniaxial microstructure and its manipulation by controlling the processing parameters indicate the potential of the present freeze casting route for the production of scaffolds for bone tissue engineering applic
