KetaSpire® KT-820 SL10 is a polyetheretherketone (PEEK) based compound designed to offer enhanced lubricity and reduced friction compared to standard PEEK. Unlike other grades formulated for wear resistance, this grade offers high lubricity while retaining outstanding ductility and toughness that surpasses that of unmodified high viscosity PEEK. Also, this product offers high melt flow, which allows injection molding of thin, intricate, or complex parts.
In addition to these differentiating features, this resin also offers the outstanding combination of ultra-performance attributes commonly known for PEEK. These include: mechanical strength and stiffness even at elevated temperatures, long term thermal-oxidative stability, fatigue resistance, and excellent chemical resistance to a broad range of harsh chemical environments including acids, bases, and organics.
The attractive combination of properties make KetaSpire® KT-820 SL10 suitable for applications in transportation, electronics, chemical processing, and industrial uses including oil and gas exploration and production.
