In the mechanical industry, PEEK resin is often used to make compressor valve plates, piston rings, seals and various chemical pump bodies and valve components. Using this resin instead of stainless steel to make impeller of vortex pump can significantly reduce the wear degree and noise level, and extend its service life. In addition, because PEEK resin meets the specification requirements of tube group workpiece materials and can still be bonded with various adhesives at high temperatures, modern connectors will be another potential application market.
The semiconductor industry is developing towards larger wafers, smaller chips, narrower lines and linewidth. VI CTREx PEEK polymer materials have obvious advantages in round crystal manufacturing, front-end processing, processing and inspection, and back-end processing.
In the medical industry, PEEK resin can withstand up to 3000 cycles of high-pressure sterilization at 134 ℃, which makes it applicable to the production of surgical and dental equipment with high sterilization requirements and requiring repeated use. PEEK resin can show high mechanical strength, good stress resistance and hydrolytic stability under the conditions of hot water, steam, solvents and chemical reagents. It can be used to manufacture various medical devices requiring high-temperature steam sterilization. PEEK not only has the advantages of light weight, non-toxic, corrosion resistance, but also is a material close to human bones, which can be organically combined with the body. Therefore, it is another important application of PEK resin in the medical field to replace metal to make human bones.
