PEEK
Polyether ether ketone or PEEK is a very high temperature resistant thermoplastic polymer with excellent mechanical and chemical properties. PEEK yarns or monofilaments can be used in applications like filtration, medical appliances, tennis strings and musical strings. Nowadays, more and more composite applications demand for a high performance thermoplastic matrix and PEEK has excellent properties for the most demanding thermoplastic composite applications.
We can offer you also short cut PEEK fibres and crimped PEEK staple fibres.PEEK short cut fibres offer you the opportunity to introduce PEEK in the most demanding applications, for instance in wetlaid applications and composites. The short cut fibres give you the opportunity to combine PEEK easily with other technical fibres. PEEK crimped staple fibres can be used in conventional textiles processes like non-woven production of technical felts or filtration fabrics. Also hybrid yarns can be produced with the staple fibres where the crimp adds additional grip.
