In this thesis, several types of scaffolds composed of different materials and designed structures and functions were fabricated by 3D plotting under mild conditions (room temperature and without using any organic solvent). Broad biomaterials including inorganic (such as calcium phosphate cement and mesoporous bioglass), organic (such as alginate and gelatin) and composite materials were prepared into printable pastes to plot as 3D scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. Organic/inorganic biphasic and bipartite structure, core/shell alginate/nano-hydroxyapatite and hollow fiber structure were designed and realized. Scaffolds with multi functions including suitable mechanical properties, sustained drug/protein delivery and in vitro vascularization were achievable. 3D plotting provided great achievements in the field of tissue engineering by preparing advanced scaffolds, as well as by plotting cell/matrix constructs, and even complex tissues and organs.
