  • Publication number: 20240093409
    Abstract: A method for producing a cotton-wool like material for bone regeneration using a wet spinning method. 50-80 wt % of calcium salt particles and 50-20 wt % of PDLLGA resin are put into a mixing vessel, dissolved in acetone, and stirred to produce a spinning solution with a resin concentration of 10-20 wt % in which said calcium salt particles are dispersed. The produced spinning solution is filled in a syringe, and the spinning solution filled in the syringe is injected into a collector container filled with poor solvent by extruding the spinning solution from the discharge port of an injection needle having a predetermined diameter. The spinning solution injected into the poor solvent is solidified into fibers by interdiffusion of desorption of organic solvent and penetration of poor solvent in the poor solvent solution. The fibers solidified in the poor solvent are deposited in a floating state in the collector vessel without fiber-to-fiber adhesion and collected in a cotton-wool like shape.
