Friction and wear behaviour of 18 polymers in contact with steel in environments of air and water [PDF]
18 polymers were characterized with respect to their friction and wear behaviour in contact with steel in environments of air and water. These were six unfilled materials, i.e. polyamide 66 (PA 66), polyoxymethylene (POM), polyethyleneterephthalate (PETP)

Polyetheretherketone in Implant Prosthodontics: A Scoping Review
To undertake a scoping review of the available research on the application of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) in implant prosthodontics, map the available literature in order to highlight possible gaps in knowledge and, if possible, extract clinical guidelines.The literature on PEEK in implant prosthodontics published through August 2018 was identified ...

Abstract Background Aging is accompanied by a chronic low‐grade inflammatory process, known as inflammaging, as well as immunosenescence, an age‐related decline and dysregulation of immune function, and cellular senescence, a process in which cells enter a state of irreversible growth arrest while actively releasing pro‐inflammatory factors.

Biological tribological properties between polyetheretherketone and patella cartilage
Reciprocating sliding friction and wear tests were carried out on polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and natural patella cartilage using the pin-on-disk configuration at different normal loads, slipping velocity and friction pairs under 25% fetal bovine serum ...

Specific heat capacity and thermal conductivity of PEEK/Ag nanoparticles composites determined by Modulated-Temperature Differential Scanning Calorimetry [PDF]
The thermal conductivity accurate measurement of polymer based composites is a challenge: it would allow us to understand the mechanisms of thermal transport in such materials. Silver nanoparticles were introduced in Polyetheretherketone matrix and their
