- This paper highlights an international collaboration that represents a breakthrough in sustainable manufacturing of functional-scaffolds for tissue engineering applications. The paper is significant as it is one of the first demonstrating the use of single-step and solvent-free approaches for the processing of composite material formulations, and their importance in achieving enhanced physicochemical/biological performances. It formed the foundation for a subsequent international project to produce multi-layered tissue-like substitutes (https://doi.org/10.3390/polym12102233). It represents the main contribution to a successful Academy of Medical Sciences award (SBF006\1021) and an invited conference talk (IRIM 2020 - Italy), and is the basis for an EPSRC NIA submission.
