Medical grade peek is a new type of medical material which has high-purity PEEK. The products have a stable performance and good biocompatibility. PEEK is a member of special engineering plastics. Compared with other special engineering plastics (such as PPS, PAI, PI, PTFE, etc.), PEEK has excellent comprehensive properties (easy molding, corrosion resistance, etc.). Its good biocompatibility, high purity, chemical inertness, and elastic modulus similar to human bone are known as a new generation of orthopedic implant materials after titanium alloys. SMC provides general industrial grade, general medical grade and medical implant grade PEEK materials to meet various needs of customers.
The applications are diverse and range from the orthopaedic market with joint reconstruction and trauma segments to surgical instruments, dental applications and many more.

1) PEEK is an aromatic crystalline thermoplastic polymer material with melting point of 334℃. It has high mechanical strength, high temperature resistance, impact resistance, flame retardant, acid and alkali resistance, hydrolysis resistance, wear resistance, fatigue resistance, irradiation resistance and good electrical properties..
2) Medical grade PEEK material has good biocompatibility, and its modulus is similar to that of human bone.
3) PEEK material can be inspected by ray, and the image will be clearer during CT inspection.
4) PEEK material can be complexly shaped, can accurately match the defect area, has excellent mechanical properties, good protection performance, and high postoperative comfort. It has gradually become the main choice of orthopedic repair materials.
It is suitable for the repair of soft tissue injuries in shoulder joints, ankle joints, knee joints, hip joints, wrist joints and other joints. Besides, it is also used in surgical instruments, dental applications and many more.
