Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adfm201470091-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>This image was created by freeze casting TiO₂ powders, using ice as a template to control the architectural morphology of the scaffold. Such bioinspired scaffolds with equal porosity but different pore architectures exhibit compressive mechanical properties that change as a function of the pore morphology. On page 1978, the ceramic scaffolds are prepared by M. M. Porter et al. by freeze casting aqueous slurries with different soluble additives to alter the viscosity, pH, or alcohol concentration. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg5503zp41" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
