• Solvent cast the polycaprolactone (PCL) - magnesium composite and produce filament by extrusion

• Use fused-deposition-modeling (FDM) method to 3D print the PCL-Mg bone scaffold

• Use gas pycnometer to measure the volume of the printed scaffold and calculate its macroporosity.

• Uniaxial tensile testing was used to determine the compressive strength and compressive modulus

Skills: 3D printing (FDM), gas pycnometer, solvent casting, mechanical testing
