TL;DR: The results indicated that the printed CFR-PEEK samples had significantly higher general mechanical strengths than the printed pure PEEK (even though there was no statistical difference in compressive strength) and cell densities on the “as-printed” PEEK and the CFR- PEEK sample surfaces were significantly higher than on the corresponding polished and sandblasted samples.

PEEK Biomaterials in Trauma, Orthopedic, and Spinal Implants
Steven M. Kurtz,John N. Devine +1 more
TL;DR: The extensive polymer science literature as it relates to structure, mechanical properties, and chemical resistance of PAEK biomaterials is synthesized to more readily appreciate why this family of polymers will be inherently strong, inert, and biocompatible.

Mechanical properties of biomedical titanium alloys
TL;DR: Titanium alloys are expected to be much more widely used for implant materials in the medical and dental fields because of their superior biocompatibility, corrosion resistance and specific strength compared with other metallic implant materials.

Polymer surface modification by plasmas and photons
TL;DR: Pulsed UV-laser irradiation can produce submicron periodic linear and dot patterns on polymer surfaces without photomask, which can be used to increase surface roughness of inert polymers for improved adhesion as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of composite membranes based on sulfonated polyether ether ketone with embedded heteropolycompounds were studied and their electrochemical and thermal properties were studied, showing that an increase in degree of sulfonation and introduction of these fillers resulted in increased Tg and enhanced membrane hydrophilicity, bringing about a substantial gain in proton conductivity.
