Polyether Ether Ketone

What is PEEK?

PEEK (polyether ether ketone) is a high-performance engineering plastic with outstanding resistance to harsh chemicals, excellent mechanical strength and dimensional stability. It offers hydrolysis resistance to steam, water, and seawater. PEEK can maintain stiffness at high temperatures and is suitable for continuous use at temperatures up to 338oF (170oC). PEEK Engineering Plastic has a proven track record in challenging environments such as aerospace, oil and gas, food and beverage processing, and semiconductors.

Polyether Ether Ketone Properties:

• Mechanical Strength: High tensile and flexural strength, maintaining integrity under high stress.
• Thermal Stability: High melting point (approximately 343°C) and can be used continuously at temperatures up to 250°C.
• Chemical Resistance: Resistant to various chemicals, including acids, bases, and organic solvents.
• Wear and Abrasion Resistance: It is excellently resistant to wear and abrasion, making it suitable for applications with significant friction.
• Hydrolysis Resistance: PEEK is highly resistant to hydrolysis, even at high temperatures and pressures.
• Low Smoke and Toxic Gas Emission: In the event of a fire, PEEK emits very low levels of smoke and toxic gases.

Polyether Ether Ketone Applications:

1. Aerospace: Used in components such as brackets, clamps, and seals due to its high strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to jet fuels and hydraulic fluids.
2. Automotive: Employed in under-the-hood components, bearings, and gears, thanks to its durability and resistance to harsh environments.
3. Medical: Utilized in medical implants, surgical instruments, and other medical devices because it is biocompatible and can be sterilized.
4. Electronics: Used in connectors, cable insulation, and other electronic components due to its excellent insulating properties and thermal stability.
5. Industrial: Used in pumps, valves, and compressor components due to its ability to withstand aggressive chemicals and high temperatures.

PEEK Material Price:

The price of PEEK Material can vary depending on the grade, form (e.g., granules, rods, sheets), and supplier. According to the latest market data, it typically ranges from $500 to $1000 per kilogram. However, prices can fluctuate based on market demand, raw material costs, and other economic factors.
