Kunststoffe international, 2005-11-21, A Substitute for Metal: Polyetherimides (PEIs)
...coats or applications formerly carried out with metals. The main focus of new developments is on reducing weight for both aircraft and railway applications. Peter Catsman In 1982, GE Plastics commercially introduced polyetherimides (PEIs) under the Ultem label. The philosophy behind this new family of materials was to combine polyimides, with their excellent thermal and oxidative stability but poor meltability, with aromatic ester groups in order to making the molecular chain more flexible. Th...

... the success of this industry. In 1982, General Electric introduced a thermoplastic polyetherimide (PEI), a new transparent high-performance material (Ultem), while in 1983, Amoco came up with polyphthalamide (PPA), an aromatic polyamide. Production of PPA started in 1990 (Amodel). Modified polycarbonates such as polyester carbonate were introduced in 1983 (Bayer) and were launched on the market in 1986. In the mid-1990s, the first biodegradable plastics reached production readiness but almost a...
Kunststoffe international, 2005-11-21, Moulds for Micro-Injection Moulding
...les One of the first joint projects to do with miniature parts concerned a high-precision support plate for a contact carrier (Fig. 1). Measuring roughly 20 mm x 25 mm x4 mm, and made of a polyetherimide containing 30 wt. % glass fibre (grade: Ultem 2300, manufacturer: GE Plastics), this support plate has 324 holes of 0.49 mm diameter and must be absolutely flat. The tolerance for the distance between any two holes is ± 10 µm. As shown in Fig. 1, the holes are generated by pins that are f...

Tests with the high-performance plastics PEI (grade: Ultem; manufacturer: Sabic Innovative Plastics), PPSU (grade: Radel R; manufacturer: Solvay GmbH) and PEEK (grade: Victrex PEEK; manufacturer: Victrex plc) produced strips in a quality that cannot be attained through the conventional form of production by ...

Sabic Innovative Plastics offers a variety of plastics, including the Cycoloy (PC+ABS) blend, the PC Lexan, the PEI Ultem, the Noryl PPO blend and the LNP special compounds. Flexible PVC: Flexible PVC cable insulations traditionally have lead-based heat stabilizers. Although there is now unleaded PVC for cable, many electronics companies are interested in alternat...

...). At the K2010, Sabic will introduce five new thermoplastics developed specially for use in airplane cabins. They fulfill rigid requirements as to fire resistance, smoke density and toxicity. Additionally, a carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (type: Ultem) has been developed to replace aluminum. According to manufacturer's data, the material enables weight reductions of up to 50 % for interior components while increasing stiffness 40 % above that of aluminum. The two brands Noryl and Lexan E...

In dialysis membranes, polyarylsulfones have established themselves while the PEI Ultem from Sabic is used in sterilizable containers. Medical technology therefore offers very attractive growth possibilities for PESU and PSU, but also PEI. In aeronautics, high-performance materials such as polyarylsulfones have proven themselves, since they are inh...

It transpired that the standard PEI grade Ultem 1000 (manufacturer: Sabic Innovative Plastics) tends to undergo stress corrosion cracking after immersion in Skydrol LD IV, a hydraulic fluid. Notably, this cracking manifests itself not in a lowering of tensile strength or elongation at yield du...
