High‐Velocity Ballistic Impact Performance of FFF Printed PEEK With Different Infill Patterns
Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 5, May 2026.This study examines 3D printed PEEK under Izod, quasi‐static, and high‐velocity impact. Hexagonal infill shows the highest Izod impact strength and superior quasi‐static energy absorption. However, under ballistic impact, all patterns behave similarly, indicating performance depends on infill at low velocity, but on intrinsic material properties at ...
