Assessment of tensile and fatigue behavior of PEEK in a physiologically relevant environment

In the last decades the necessity of implant devices is continuously increasing. The researchers have thus focused their attentions on the development of new biocompatible materials, in particular polymers. Among them, polyetheretherketone (PEEK) has gained wide interest in load-bearing application...
