The Anisotropic Mechanical and Tribological Behaviors of Additively Manufactured (Material Extrusion) Implant-Grade Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK)

In this study, we investigated the mechanical and tribological properties of the layer-by-layer structure of additively manufactured implant-grade Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK) through the Material Extrusion (ME) process as a potential substitute for artificial joints. The effective elasticity modul...
