[[PEEK]] is a semicrystalline polymer composed of benzene, ketone, and ether groups. PEEK is known for having good physical properties including high wear resistance and low moisture absorption <ref name=teflon>{{cite web |url= http://www.boedeker.com/peek_p.htm |title= PEEK (PolyEtherEtherKetone) Specifications |year= 2013 |work= Boedeker Plastics |accessdate=20 May 2013}}</ref> and has been used for biomedical implants due to it'sits relative inertness inside of the human body.
