Mica filled polyetherketoneketones for material extrusion 3D printing
Additive Manufacturing, 2022ABSTRACT Polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) has superior physical properties to most available thermoplastics compatible with material extrusion-based 3D printing. The performance of fused filament fabrication (FFF) compatible PEKK has been detailed primarily as a function of varying the isomer ratios composing the co-polymer structure.

Enhanced Antibacterial Ability and Bioactivity of Polyetherketoneketone Modified with LL-37
Langmuir, 2022Polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) is considered to be a potential substitute material for metal bone implants because of its advantageous biocompatibility, chemical stability, and mechanical properties, but clinical application has been severely restricted due to PEKK's lack of antibacterial ability and biological activity.

Taguchi optimization of 3D printed short carbon fiber polyetherketoneketone (CFR PEKK)
Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 2023In this study, the Taguchi method was utilized to optimize fused filament fabrication (FFF) additive manufacturing with the goal of maximizing the flexural strength of 3D printed polyaryletherketone specimens. We analyzed 3D printed (3DP) carbon fiber reinforced poly-etherketoneketone (CFR PEKK), 3D printed and pressed (3DP + P) CFR PEKK, and injection

Hydroxyapatite whisker-reinforced polyetherketoneketone bone ingrowth scaffolds
Acta Biomaterialia, 2010Hydroxyapatite (HA) whisker-reinforced polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) bone ingrowth scaffolds were prepared and characterized. High levels of porosity (75-90%) and HA whisker reinforcement (0-40 vol.%) were attained using a powder processing approach to mix the HA whiskers, PEKK powder and a NaCl porogen, followed by compression molding at 350-375 ...

Mechanical properties of hydroxyapatite whisker reinforced polyetherketoneketone composite scaffolds
Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 2009The apparent mechanical properties of hydroxyapatite (HA) whisker reinforced polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) scaffolds were evaluated in unconfined, uniaxial compression to investigate the effects of the porosity (75%, 82.5% and 90%), HA content (0, 20 and 40 vol%) and mold temperature (350, 365 and 375 ( composite function)C). Increased porosity resulted

Preheat Compression Molding for Polyetherketoneketone: Effect of Molecular Mobility
Chinese Journal of Polymer Science, 2021Polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) is a new evolving polymeric material, and is considered as another important member of the polyaryletherketone (PAEK) family in addition to polyetheretherketone (PEEK). Hot compression molding can be used to compact and consolidate the PEKK products, where the temperature and pressure play key roles to affect the molecular ...
