This work presents deformation behaviour of gellan gum and gellan gum - bioactive glass
composites as novel hydrophilic materials for production of scaffolds in the field of bone-tissue engineering.
According to recent studies such materials are attractive for personalized design of implants
thanks to their biocompatibility and wide range of available fabrication methods. Batch of samples
was subjected to uni-axial compression loading in a custom designed loading device to obtain their
elastic and plastic characteristics. However the testing procedure was challenging because of very low
stiffness of the material. Acquired results show a significant reinforcement effect of bioactive glass
and its influence to the elastic modulus.
