PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) is a unique engineering thermoplastic offering high temperature resistance, toughness, rigidity, and creep resistance. It is resistant to a wide range of solvents, making it an excellent material for use in a wide spectrum of applications where thermal, chemical and combustion properties are critical to performance.
Benefits of PEEK
Excellent temperature and chemical resistance
Insoluble in all common solvents
Superior dielectric strength
Outstanding wear and abrasion resistance
Low moisture absorption
