PEEK material application:
PEEK material was first used in the aerospace field, replacing aluminum and other metal materials to manufacture various aircraft parts. Because PEEK material has good friction resistance and mechanical properties, it is used as the raw material for the manufacture of engine inner covers. Various parts such as gaskets, seals, and clutch gear rings are widely used in automobile transmission, brake and air conditioning systems. PEEK material is an ideal electrical insulator. It can still maintain good electrical insulation performance under harsh working conditions such as high temperature, high pressure and high humidity. Therefore, the electronic information field has gradually become the second largest application field of PEEK materials, manufacturing and transporting ultrapure water The pipelines, valves and pumps are commonly used in the semiconductor industry to manufacture wafer carriers, electronic insulating diaphragms and various connecting devices. As a semi-crystalline engineering plastic, PEEK is insoluble in almost all solvents except concentrated sulfuric acid, so it is often used to make compressor valves, piston rings, seals, and various chemical pump bodies and valve parts. PEEK material can also withstand up to 3000 cycles of autoclaving at 134°C. This feature makes it suitable for the production of surgical and dental equipment that requires high sterilization and requires repeated use.
