The incorporation of ceramic additives is the most commonly used strategy to improve the biofunctionality of polymer-based scaffolds intended for bone regeneration. By embedding ceramic particles as a coating, the functionality improvement in the polymeric scaffolds can be concentrated on the cell–surface interface, thus creating a more favourable environment for the adhesion and proliferation of osteoblastic cells. In this work, a pressure-assisted and heat-induced method to coat polylactic acid (PLA) scaffolds with calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) particles is presented for the first time. The coated scaffolds were evaluated by optical microscopy observations, a scanning electron microscopy analysis, water contact angle measurements, compression testing, and an enzymatic degradation study. The ceramic particles were evenly distributed, covered more than 60% of the surface, and represented around 7% of the coated scaffold weight. A strong bonding interface was achieved, and the thin layer of CaCO₃ (~20 µm) provided a significant increase in the mechanical properties (with a compression modulus improvement up to 14%) while also enhancing the surface roughness and hydrophilicity. The results of the degradation study confirmed that the coated scaffolds were able to maintain the pH of the media during the test (~7.6 ± 0.1), in contrast to the pure PLA scaffolds, for which a value of 5.07 ± 0.1 was obtained. The ceramic-coated scaffolds developed showed potential for further evaluations in bone tissue engineering applications.
