PEEK - PSU - PES
= Ketron, Polyketone, Aromatic - Polysulfone - Polyether sulfone
Presentation:
Applications:
PEEK or Ketron, Polyketone, Aromatic is mainly used in the manufacture of highly stressed technical parts at hot temperatures.
PES is used in the electronics, food and medical industries.
Advantages:
PEEK :
- Exceptional resistance to high-energy radiation
- High temperature resistance up to 260°C
- Very high tensile and flexural modulus of elasticity
- Good compressive strength
- Good chemical resistance
- Thermoformable
PES :
- High mechanical quality
- Optimum mechanical resistance
- Transparent
- Good chemical resistance
PSU :
- High resistance to thermo-oxidative degradation (steam sterilisation)
- High operating temperature up to 210°C
- Excellent resistance to hydrolysis (90°C of tensile stress preserved after 10,000 hours in water at 100°C)
Disadvantages:
PES :
- High risk of cracking under stress
