Investigation of Mechanical and Thermal Behavior of Glass Fiber–Enhanced PEEK Parts Produced via Fused Filament FabricationBy Ananda M N, Sudheer Reddy J, Vikram Kedambadi Vasu, Madhusudhan
Abstract: This study investigates the thermal and mechanical properties of Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) polymer and Glass Fiber (GF) reinforced PEEK polymer fabricated using the Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) process. Specimens were printed in three building orientations—X, Y, and 45°—to evaluate the influence of layer deposition on polymer material performance. Tensile and flexural tests revealed that GF-PEEK polymer exhibited significantly higher Ultimate Tensile Strength (110 MPa in X-orientation), Young's Modulus (4.5 GPa), and …
