Abstract Defects are pivotal in influencing the mechanical performance of the hydroxyapatite (HAp) porous structure. In vat photopolymerization (VP) fabrication, directly peeling HAp/polymer green structure from the platform is an efficient approach but often introduces defects, compromising the mechanical performance of sintered HAp scaffolds. The peeling process is a physical phenomenon where the photocured HAp/polymer green structure exhibits resistance against applied peeling forces, which is influenced by its modulus and toughness. In this study, the peeling behavior of cubic-pore HAp (CP-HAp) green structures with varying levels of modulus and toughness was investigated in detail. The characterization… More >
