Fabrication and characterization of polylactic acid/polycaprolactone composite macroporous micro-nanofiber scaffolds by phase separation

TL;DR: In this article, a series of biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA)/polycaprolactone (PCL) composite micro-nanofiber scaffolds with different PCL contents (0-50 wt%) were prepared by phase separation, and the results showed that the addition of PCL had a great effect on the morphology of composite scaffolds and also changed the thermal properties and crystallinity of the PLA matrix.
