Abstract
Cenospheres (CS) are ceramic hollow microspheres and have been used to prepare composite foams for applications such as medical implants. However, its potential standalone application in the biomedical field is not fully explored. Herein, a susceptor-assisted microwave (SMW) sintering approach was used for producing CS foam scaffolds. Owing to the hybrid heating mechanism offered by the SMW process, sintering of the low-dielectric cenospheres was realized. We found that sintering was initiated at a lower temperature (1100 °C) compared to conventional heating (1250 °C) as reported in the literature, probably due to the lower activation energy required by SMW sintering. The physical and compositional properties of the sintered CS specimens were examined, and in vitro studies were performed. The as-fabricated CS foam possessed minimal effect on cell viability. Cells migrated and adhered well within the pores of the specimens, which indicates the potential of the CS as scaffold materials for cell engineering applications.
