Nanocomposite coating of albumin/Li-containing bioactive glass nanospheres promotes osteogenic activity of PEEK

Abstract Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is an important material applied in orthopedic applications, as it posses favorable properties for orthopedic implants, e.g., radiolucency and suitable elastic modulus. However, PEEK exhibits insufficient osteogenesis and osteointegration that limits its clinical...
