Introduction

Polyetheretherketone, also known as PEEK, has been mass-produced since 1962.
  - It is a thermoplastic polycondensate.
- General properties: It has high tensile and flexural strength, high impact strength, and a high fatigue limit. High heat distortion temperature, high chemical resistance, and high radiation resistance. Good electrical properties, good slip and wear characteristics, and low flammability. Easy processing, no thermal after-treatment of injection molding.
- Trade Name: Arotone, Doctalex, Kadel, Mindel, PEEK, Santolite, Staber, Ultrapek, Zyex.
