Celazole PBI
(Colours: Black only)
Polybenzimidazole offers the highest temperature resistance and best mechanical property retention of all unfilled thermoplastics. Celazole PBI is very “clean” in terms of ionic impurity and does not outgas (except water). These characteristics make this material extremely attractive to high-tech industries e.g. semiconductor and aerospace industries. Usually Celazole PBI is used for critical components to decrease maintenance costs and to gain valuable production “uptime”.
