Lithium disilicate and PEEK implant-retained single crowns - a randomized, prospective clinical study [PDF]
Srpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2022 Introduction/Objective. Comparing two materials under the same conditions is the best way to define differences between them. Ceramic-reinforced polyether-etherketone (PEEK) is a polymer that has many possible uses in dentistry as already well-known ...

Direct Iminization of PEEK [PDF]
Macromolecules, 2011 Semi-crystalline poly(ether ketone)s are important high-temperature engineering thermoplastics, but are difficult to characterize at the molecular level because of their insolubility in conventional organic solvents. Here we report that polymers of this type, including PEEK, react cleanly at high temperatures with low-volatility aralkyl amines to ...
