Plastic Material: Polyether Ether Ketone – PEEK
Part of the polyaryletherketone (PAEK) family of polymers, Polyether Ether Ketone, PEEK for short, is a semi-crystalline high-performance thermoplastic. Developed in 1978, PEEK is used in engineering applications due to its outstanding resistance to harsh chemicals, excellent mechanical strength, and dimensional stability.
Depending on the formulation of the Polyether Ether Ketone material by the manufacturer, the properties can be slightly different from one manufacturer’s PEEK filament to another. Some have added carbon fiber to further increase the rigidity of the material.
