“…Due to its similar mechanical properties to that of natural bone and excellent biocompatibility, polyetheretherketone is used in a wide range of medical applications such as orthopedic, bone plate and spinal implants. Compared with traditional implants such as stainless steel, Co-Cr-Mo and Ti 6 Al 4 V alloy, the modulus of polyetheretherketone is closer to that of natural bone 1 . These excellent performances could effectively reduce stress shielding due to the match in modulus of elasticity and stiffness between implant and bone.…”

“…[24] Another reinforcement added to PEEK was short glass fibers, which increased its bioactivity almost six times. [68,69] This isoelastic implant material promoted the amplification of the human bone cell line, MG63. The final mechanical stiffness of the composite was similar to bone, whereas the modulus of pure PEEK is lower than that of bone.…”

Additive manufacturing of polyetheretherketone and its composites: A review

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a high-performance plastic with favorable physical, mechanical, chemical, and biological properties for various industrial applications. Most PEEK substrates/components are manufactured using traditional methods like milling, compression molding, injection molding, pressure sintering, and so forth. With the advent of various additive manufacturing (AM) techniques, researchers have been working on optimizing the processing parameters for AM of PEEK. Furthermore, several PEEK composites with improved properties have also been developed, and efforts have also been made to use these PEEK composites in AM. Since AM of PEEK and its composites is a relatively new area of the advanced manufacturing process, the field faces many challenges. There is a dearth of comprehensive reports on this topic. Keeping this perspective in mind, we have tried to collate the relevant information on the composites and AM of PEEK in this review. The review highlighted the influence of variation in composition on material properties and performance of PEEK and showed the correlation with AM processability of such composites. A detailed analysis of the various reports on fused deposition modeling and selective laser sintering based processing of PEEK composites is included in the review. Critical barriers to the AM of these high-performance polymer composites are pointed out. We have also included the outcome of some interesting studies about the coating of PEEK with various materials/compounds to provide a broader perspective. This review will help the researcher to design and develop additively manufactured PEEK-based structures with improved and customized properties.

“…In order to improve the solubility, the use of derivatives of hydroquinone, namely 6 and 7, with side groups that have a big steric effect in order to break the π-π stacking seemed to be appropriate (Scheme 2). The first test was made with the 2,5-di-tert-butylhydroquinone (6). The solubility of the obtained polymer was better in organic solvents like tetrahydrofurane and acetone, but still not good.…”

“…One of its derivatives is used as a monomer for the preparation of polyether ether ketone (PEEK) [3], which is a thermoplastic polymer with good mechanical and chemical properties [4,5]. PEEK is used in many different applications, such as cable insulation, pumps, and also in medicine, in particular for spine implants [6]. Polymer implants must be fatigue resistant, biocompatible, and resistant in aqueous media [7] and they should maintain these properties for many years.…”

Synthesis of New Polyether Ether Ketone Derivatives with Silver Binding Site and Coordination Compounds of Their Monomers with Different Silver Salts

Abstract:Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) is a well-known polymer used for implants and devices, especially spinal ones. To overcome the biomaterial related infection risks, 4-4 1 -difluorobenzophenone, the famous PEEK monomer, was modified in order to introduce binding sites for silver ions, which are well known for their antimicrobial activity. The complexation of these new monomers with different silver salts was studied. Crystal structures of different intermediates were obtained with a linear coordination between two pyridine groups and the silver ions in all cases. The mechanical and thermal properties of different new polymers were characterized. The synthesized PEEKN5 polymers showed similar properties than the PEEK ones whereas the PEEKN7 polymers showed similar thermal properties but the mechanical properties are not as good as the ones of PEEK. To improve these properties, these polymers were complexed with silver nitrate in order to "cross-link" with silver ions. The presence of ionic silver in the polymer was then confirmed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD). Finally, a silver-based antimicrobial compound was successfully coated on the surface of PEEKN5.
