PEEK (poly-ether-ether-ketone) is a high performance engineering semicrystalline thermoplastic. PEEK has excellent tribological behaviour, which is optimised in the specially formulated tribological composite grade. This paper presents a comparative study of wear and friction on PEEK, PEEK-CF30 (wt
