PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) Unfilled Plastic
Features:
PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) is a semicrystalline thermoplastic with excellent mechanical and chemical resistance properties that are retained at high temperatures. This unfilled PEEK plastic can be used at very high temperatures (+480°F) and exhibits extraordinary mechanical properties, including high toughness, hardness, flexural strength, and torsional strength.
PEEK exhibits excellent chemical resistance, excellent dielectric properties up to +480 °F and a very good resistance to all kinds of radiation. More importantly, it is self-extinguishing according to UL 94.
Stock Shape / Size Range:
- Plate (Thickness: 2mm – 150mm)
- Rod (Dia: 3mm – 210mm)
- Tube (16mm – 360mm)
Preferred Fields:
Sliding components, guide rollers, chain guides in ovens, tank linings, thermoformed parts, various components for food, drinking water, medical, pharmaceutical and biotechnological use, packaging plants, semiconductor technology and microelectronics, nuclear and x-ray technology, gas and oil exploration and conveying, aerospace applications, gears and engine building.
