note = "The first part is about an initial study on the
Classification and Characteristics of Biomaterials and
after of Polymeric Biomaterials, as well as their
applications in the biomedical field. The second part is
an abstract to the origin PEEK polymer family, and an
explanation of its mechanical and chemical properties.
After there is a comparison with other current biomedical
polymers. The third section provides a classification of
biomedical applications of PEEK, that was made
according to medical application areas. The aim of
this study is to explain the current biomedical
applications of PEEK, leaving open the field to use it in
other biomedical areas, and also including the possible use
of compounds or reinforcements to improve the biomaterial
characteristics.",
