Product Description

PEEK Polymer – Polyether Ether Ketone

Introduction to PEEK

PEEK (Polyether Ether Ketone) is one of the most advanced and high-performance engineering plastics known for its exceptional thermal, chemical, and mechanical properties. This thermoplastic can operate continuously at temperatures up to 250°C and withstand short-term exposure up to 310°C, making it ideal for demanding applications in aerospace, medical, military, and semiconductor industries.

Thanks to its sterilizability via steam, heat, ethylene oxide, and gamma radiation, PEEK is widely used in medical, pharmaceutical, and food processing sectors. It is available in various shapes including sheets, rods, tubes, and pipes, either in pure form or reinforced with glass or carbon fibers.


Advantages of PEEK Polymer

  • Continuous heat resistance up to +250°C

  • Excellent chemical resistance (similar to fluoropolymers)

  • Outstanding wear and abrasion resistance

  • Superior mechanical strength and toughness

  • High dimensional stability

  • Very low moisture absorption

  • Excellent electrical insulation

  • Good machinability and sterilization compatibility


Disadvantages of PEEK Polymer

  • High cost compared to most other engineering plastics

  • Reduced mechanical performance above 150°C

  • Limited food compatibility (except Ketron PEEK 1000)

  • Low UV resistance in long-term exposure

  • Lower compressive strength compared to some materials

  • Heat resistance may drop under pressure to 140°C

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Is PEEK safe for food contact?
Only Ketron PEEK 1000 is certified for use with food and medical applications.

2. What is PEEK’s maximum service temperature?
It can withstand 250°C continuously and up to 310°C for short durations.

3. What industries use PEEK the most?
PEEK is essential in medical, aerospace, defense, automotive, and semiconductor sectors.

4. Is PEEK UV-resistant?
Standard grades are not UV-stable; UV-resistant formulations are required for outdoor use.

5. How does it compare to other engineering plastics?
PEEK combines the best of PPS, PTFE, and PAI in terms of wear, heat, and chemical resistance, but at a higher cost.
