PEKK has appropriate chemical, mechanical, and physical qualities for prosthodontic and oral implantology applications. Dental implants, crowns, bridges, end posts, denture frameworks, implant-supported fixed prostheses, and tooth restorations all have good prospective uses for PEKK.
Dental implants made of PEKK have demonstrated less effective stress shielding than implants made of titanium. Broader uses in the field of dentistry may be the consequence of additional changes and improved material qualities. As PEKK is only lately been used in dentistry and there are few published studies on PEKK, long-term evaluations are required.
The two most well-known members of the polyare Lethe ketone (PAEK) family are polyether ketone ketone (PEKK) and polyether thioketone (PEEK). PEKK is a brand-new, developing polymeric substance.
The PEKK biomaterials exhibit ultra-high performance among all thermoplastic composites for exceptional mechanical strength, chemical resistance, and high thermal stability. They are an elastic material with good shock absorption and fracture resistance. This review’s objective is to provide a thorough overview of PEKK and all of its potential clinical uses in implant, restorative, and prosthetic dentistry.
The Global EV PEKK Resin market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Solvay will start making high-performance polyether ketone ketone (PEKK) polymers in the US to help its composite materials business satisfy rising aerospace demand. A multi-specialty chemical firm called Solvay is dedicated to creating chemistry that solves significant societal problems.
In a variety of international end markets, Solvay invents and collaborates with clients. Among many other uses encouraging sustainability, its goods and services are utilized in automobiles, batteries, smart and medical devices, airplanes, and mining and oil extraction. Its resource-efficient formulations, performance chemicals, and light weighting materials all contribute to cleaner mobility while also enhancing the quality of the air and water.
The debut of Essential PEKK 3D printing filament, which was created using Arkema Capstan resin, has been announced by Essential. Because of its great mechanical strength and strong resistance to heat and chemicals, Essential believes that their PEKK material will be appealing to important vertical markets like aerospace and automotive.
EKK is comparable to PEEK in terms of performance characteristics, but because it crystallizes less quickly, it can be thought of as an amorphous polymer. The material is less susceptible to warping due to the cooling process after printing, and it also maintains the flame, smoke, and toxicity ratings needed to comply with Federal Aviation Regulations. Essential PEKK is stated to have an increased resilience to chemical assault and an extrusion temperature.
