Abstract:Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK) is a biocompatible alternative to metallic biomaterials because of its unique properties such as relatively low elastic modulus, high mechanical strength, and biocompatibility. A signi cant issue is that its bioinert feature might lead to implant failure due to poor osseointegration.Therefore, this research aims to develop the nSiO 2 ceramic particles reinforced PEEK (nSiO 2 @PEEK) polymer nanocomposite. The particle size of nanoparticles was measured as 43.6 nm using particle siz… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
