Fabrication and Surface Engineering of Pu-Tio2 Nanocomposites with Improved Mechanical, Surface and Hemocompatibility Properties with Usability in Vascular Tissue Engineering, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Baghery, Reza (Supervisor) ; Pourjavadi, Ali (Supervisor) ; Ghanbari, Hossein (Supervisor)
Abstract
The main focus of this project is the fabrication of surface engineering scaffolds based on polyurethane and titanium dioxide. The research's aim is the creation of the synergistic properties of TiO2 and PU as a new strategy for engineering artificial autologous blood vessels. In the first section, PU-TiO2 nanocomposites were synthesized by co-insitu synthesis of nanoparticles and polymer. The nanocomposite films were prepared by solvent casting and thermally induced phase separation methods. Mechanical and biological properties of films were compared with pure PU film. In solvent casting method, the outcomes revealed that the rate of endothelialization of the nanocomposite scaffold after 7...
