Abstract
Sliceable bone repair material is a porous block-shaped scaffold containing a hydrogel, wherein the hydrogel is formed by Michael type addition of at least two precursor molecules. Said scaffold is made of a synthetic ceramic material and has interconnected macropores having a diameter above 100 μm. In addition said scaffold has a total porosity of 80 to 95%. The total volume of the hydrogel is smaller than the total volume of the interconnected macropores.
