Evaluating the bioactivity of a hydroxyapatite-incorporated polyetheretherketone biocomposite

Abstract Background Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) exhibits stable chemical properties, excellent biocompatibility, and rational mechanical properties that are similar to those of human cortical bone, but the lack of bioactivity impedes its clinical application. Methods In this study, hydroxyapatite (H...
