Silica aerogel is a material composed of SiO2 that has exceptional physical properties when utilized for tissue engineering applications. Poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) biodegradable polyester been widely used biomedical applications, namely as sutures, drug carriers, and implantable scaffolds. Herein, hybrid composite silica aerogel, prepared with two different precursors, tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) or methyltrimethoxysilane (MTMS), PCL was synthesized to fulfil bone regeneration requirements.
