Effect of a coupling agent on mechanical and biological properties of polyetheretherketone/hydroxyapatite bioactive composite for prosthetic medical device

For many years, research was focused on developing a medical part of human body from polymer as to replace metal. In this study, the aim is to produce a Polyetheretherketone/Hydroxyapatite (PEEK/HA) composite which posses balance mechanical properties and good spreading of bioactive ceramic, hydroxy...
