HLC/n-HAp scaffolds characterization. (a) Compressive strength (in red) and Young’s modulus (in green) of the scaffolds (A) after and (B) before the cross-linking procedure and (B) before and (C) after irradiation. (b) XRD patterns for (A) the n-HAp, HLC/n-HAp scaffolds (B) before and (C) after irradiation. (c) FT-IR spectra for the HLC/n-HAp scaffolds (A) before, (B) after irradiation, (C) for HLC, and (D) for n-HAp. (d) TGA curves for the (A) n-HAp, HLC/n-HAp scaffolds (B) after, (C) before irradiation, and (D) for HLC.
