The production of ceramic scaffolds by a novel method was reported in this work. The method comprised the mixture of colloidal silica and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) powder, where paraffin microspheres were further added to provide the porosity in the scaffold after firing. Thermo-gravimetric analysis showed that the paraffin was completely degraded before 550°C, where the heat treatment at 1100°C...
