PEEK: Extreme Performance

PEEK (polyetheretherketone) is a sophisticated fiber product produced through a melt-spinning process. Partially crystalline and naturally golden in color, PEEK has a high tensile strength and is very resistant against chemicals and can operate at extreme temperatures – making it a great fit for some of industry’s most demanding applications.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

o With a melting point of 334C/633F and a continuous service temperature of 250C/482F, PEEK performs extremely well in high temperatures. PEEK’s application window is from -60C/-76F to 250C/482F

o PEEK exhibits good chemical resistance against acids, alkalis and solvents, and its hydrolysis resistance remains high even at elevated temperatures

o As a flame retardant material, PEEK can be used in applications where there is potential exposure to fire

o Add high tensile strength to its list of features and properties and PEEK can be a very attractive material choice in demanding applications
