Optimizing PEEK implant surfaces for improved stability and biocompatibility through sandblasting and the platinum coating approach
Polyether–ether–ketone (PEEK) is a commonly employed biomaterial for spinal, cranial, and dental implant applications due to its mechanical properties, bio-stability, and radiolucency, especially when compared to metal alloys. However, its biologically inert behavior poses a substantial challenge in...
