Kunststoffe international, Semi-Crystalline, and yet Thermoformable
Ultra high performance polymers such as polyaryletherketones (PAEK) are typically not thermoformable for thick gauge applications because of their semi-crystalline nature. Specially developed PEKK grades now allow processing in this method. These can be used to produce large semi-crystalline PAEK parts with large wall thickness exhibiting extreme mechanical, chemical and flame retardant properties. Polyaryletherketones (PAEK) are used in technically challenging industry sectors, e. g. aerospace...

Kunststoffe international, 2006-09-27, Heat Resistance: Miniature Electronic Components Produced from PEEK
Special Miniature Electronic Components Produced from PEEK Heat Resistance. As a result of the ban on lead-containing solders, processing conditions in the solder bath method have become far more extreme, pushing conventionally used materials to their performance limits. For this reason, the high-performance polymer PEEK, with its excellent thermal, electrical and mechanical properties, is being increasingly used for miniature electronic components. Steffen Germer The relentless miniaturisati...
Kunststoffe international, 2007-10-21, Polyaryletherketones (PAEK)
Polyaryletherketones (PAEK) Increasing Demand (Trade-fair-pre-report K 2007) Worldwide demand for PAEK continues to increase at an annual rate of approx. 15%. In addition to Victrex, the world’s largest producer of PAEK, two new suppliers, Degussa and Solvay, have appeared on the scene to develop additional applications. Wolfgang Reimer and Horst Sandner Back in 1981, British ICI launched two linear aromatic semi-crystalline thermoplastics, polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and polyetherketone (...
Kunststoffe international, 2008-10-17, Polyaryletherketones (PAEKs)
Apioneer in PAEK highperformance polymers, Victrex was formed in 1993 through a management buy-out from ICI. ICI had already launched two lineararomatic thermoplastics – polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and polyetherketone (PEK) – in 1981. Victrex plc, which is listed on the London Stock Exchange, today has production facilities in the UK and sales organizations in Europe, America, the Asia-Pacific region and Japan. Its range of over 40 products has become highly complex: various fill...
Kunststoffe international, 2010-09-24, Melt Flow in a Circular Distributor
Aspiral mandrel or a flat spiral die?” This was the question that had to be asked in 2006 when considering which type of extrusion die is the best to use for the manufacturing of small tubes, hoses, blown films and blow molded articles [1]. Today, it is clear that the systems that have become established are those in which the distribution of the melt (or the different melts in the case of multi-layer dies) takes place on a single plane – and not just for special applications. Circular distribut...
Kunststoffe international, 2011-10-17, Polyaryletherketone (PAEK)
Ever more often PEAKs (polyaryletherketones) prove themselves in application areas that demand a combination of properties at the highest levels of performance. This is particularly true where they must resist heat, pressure, aggressive chemicals and high levels of abrasion. Polyetheretherketones (PEEK) as a sub-group of PAEKs also offer excellent material properties with a large range of grades for individual solutions. Better than Before the Crisis The financial and economic crisis that left o...
