Interfacial engineering of HA-coated PEEK through microstructure control and sulfonate functionalization for improved cytocompatibility and antibacterial activity

Background The development of multifunctional biomaterial surfaces that simultaneously support bone-cell responses and reduce bacterial infection is important for orthopedic implants. However, polymer-based polyetheretherketone (PEEK) material exhibits limited surface bioactivity...
