(a) Characterisation of PSNTs using three materials and three sterilisation methods. (b–d) there is no significant difference in PSNT deformation of the three materials before and after low-temperature sterilisation, while the PSNT of ABS and resin materials deformed after autoclaving. Among them, the deformation of ABS material is the most obvious. All experiments of every module were performed by 5 measuring points.
