Direct Iminization of PEEK [PDF]
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 ...

A Peek Outside Our Universe [PDF]
According to general relativity (GR), a universe with a cosmological constant Λ, like ours, is trapped inside an event horizon, r<3/Λ. What is outside? We show, using Israel (1967) junction conditions, that there could be a different universe outside. Our universe looks like a black hole for an outside observer. Outgoing radial null geodesics cannot

Bimetallic ions regulated PEEK of bone implantation for antibacterial and osteogenic activities
After the surgical implantation of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) orthopedic biomaterials, there are two major clinical challenges, implantation-related pathogen infection and poor osseointegration-caused aseptic loosening, threaten the lifespan and the ...

This paper studies peek arc consistency, a reasoning technique that extends the well-known arc consistency technique for constraint satisfaction. In contrast to other more costly extensions of arc consistency that have been studied in the literature, peek arc consistency requires only linear space and quadratic time and can be parallelized in a ...

Biocompatibility and osteoinductive ability of casein phosphopeptide modified polyetheretherketone
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a potential implant material for dental application due to its excellent mechanical properties. However, its biological inertness and poor osteoinductive ability limited its clinical application.

Alternating Shear Force of Respiration Regulates Cell Interactions of Fibroblasts and Macrophages to Promote Soft Tissue Integration of Chest Wall Polyetheretherketone Implants. [PDF]
Given that PEEK chest wall implants induce shear force at the soft tissue‐implant interface due to respiratory motion in the early in vivo post‐implantation stage. We confirmed that this mechanical stimulus triggers the PIEZO1/ITGB1/YAP1 signalling axis in L929 and the STAT6/p‐STAT6 pathway in RAW264.7, which in turn mediates adhesion and migration of ...
