"POROUS BIOMATERIAL-FILLER COMPOSITE AND A METHOD FOR MAKING THE SAME"

Application 1973/DELNP/2007 published 2007-08-17, filed 2007-03-14
The present inventions relates to a porous biomaterial-filler composite comprising a biomaterial, such as collagen, interspersed with a calcium phosphate-type filler material. The porosity of the composite is similar to that of natural bone and can feature a pore size ranging from a few nanometres to greater than 100 microns. Scaffolds prepared from the biomaterial-filler composite are suitable for resorbable bone substitute materials.
