Ketron PEEK (Polyetheretherketone)
The Ketron PEEK family of materials is based on polyetheretherketone resin. This semi-crystaline advanced material exhibits a unique combination of high mechanical properties, temperature resistance and excellent chemical resistance making it the most popular advanced plastics material.

Main Characteristics
Very high max. allowable service temperature in air (250°C continuously going up to 310°C for short periods)
High mechanical strength, stiffness and hardness, also at elevated temperatures
Excellent chemical and hydrolysis resistance
Excellent wear & frictional behaviour (particulary KETRON PEEK-HPV and PEEK-CA30)
Very good dimensional stability
Inherent low flammability and very low levels of smoke evolution during combustion
Good electrical insulating and dielectric properties (except for KETRON PEEK-HPV and KETRON PEEK-CA30)
Excellent resistance against high energy radiation (gamma and X-rays)
Food contact compliant composition (PEEK-1000 Nat & PEEK TX)

Select Grade:
Ketron PEEK-1000 (PEEK 450G) | Ketron PEEK-TX | Ketron PEEK-GF30
Ketron PEEK-CA30 | Ketron PEEK-HPV (modified PEEK)
