Removable partial dentures are still widely used to repair dental defects. Due the problems of aesthetic defects, heavy weight, and metallic odor metal removable that in clinical practice, non-metallic alternative materials now actively explored. As a new material with good physical chemical properties, polyether ether ketone (PEEK) has been tried be fabrication dentures. In this paper, we revi...

To improve the performance of polyether ether ketone matrix (PEEK) in hard tissue repair and replacement applications, we fabricated graphene nanoplatelet (G) reinforced PEEK with different filler weight concentrations (0.1%–5%) through injection moulding. The mechanical properties, surface morphology, chemical composition thermal stability composites have been characterized. biocompatibility h...

Highly conductive and low vanadium permeable crosslinked sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone) (cSPEEK) membranes were prepared by electrophilic aromatic substitution for a Vanadium/Air Redox Flow Battery (Vanadium/Air-RFB) application. Membranes were synthesized from ethanol solution and crosslinked under different temperatures with 1,4-benzenedimethanol and ZnCl2 via the Friedel-Crafts crosslin...

In this chapter research trends followed by various scientific groups for the development of polymeric membranes have been described and reviewed. Most notably, the developments made at Ballard Advanced Materials (BAM) and some of their results are discussed. In general three different approaches have been followed worldwide by various research groups for the development and conception of alter...
