500 ## - GENERAL NOTE
General note Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is widely used in biomedical and dental <br/>applications due to its good mechanical strength and biocompatibility; however, its <br/>surface is relatively bioinert and lacks antibacterial properties. The aim of this work is to <br/>fabricate Poly-ether-ether ketone (PEEK) based matrix composite with eggshell <br/>powdered filler with 5 wt. %, 10 wt. %, and 15 wt. %. Further modified the surface <br/>properties via coating chitosan to enhance the surface hardness, mechanical and <br/>antibacterial properties. The incorporation of filler content and chitosan coating is <br/>verified by structural characterization using XRF, FTIR, SEM, and EDX, confirming the <br/>dispersion of filler in the PEEK matrix. Furthermore, the average contact angle <br/>measurements confirm the improved surface wettability in coated composites. The <br/>increasing trend in hardness and compression testing up to 10 wt.% filler concentration, <br/>followed by a slight decrease at 15 wt.%, indicates the effect of higher loading and <br/>agglomeration of particles on mechanical strength. Chitosan coating showed promising <br/>improved antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus in antibacterial testing, with a <br/>visible increase in inhibition zone with increasing eggshell concentration. Overall, the <br/>outcomes depicted that the composite based on polymeric PEEK matrix reinforce with <br/>eggshell and chitosan coating can effectively enhance the surface properties, mechanical <br/>performance, and antibacterial behavior of composites, making them viable replacement <br/>of dental implant.
