In situ growth of a polyphosphazene nanoparticle coating on a honeycomb surface: facile formation of hierarchical structures for bioapplication†
Abstract
In combination with the breath-figure method, an in situ growth approach of polyphosphazenes was performed on a honeycomb surface resulting in a closely packed nanoparticle coating and a micro/nanoscale hierarchical structure. The hierarchically structured surfaces exhibited high biocompatibility, allowed good cellular adhesion and presented strong potential use as a cell scaffold.
