With the rapid development of science and technology economy, domestic industrialization has made great progress. The rise of various heavy industries and emerging industries has made the demand for materials more and more extensive, no longer limited to metal, steel, wood and other materials. Changzhou Junhua PEEK Co., Ltd. (website: http://en.chinapeek.com) seized the opportunity under such a social situation and came into being. It is mainly engaged in the sales of special engineering plastics PEEK plates, PEEK rods and many other similar materials. The company seizes market opportunities and constantly adapts to market demand.

In order to make everyone have a more comprehensive and thorough understanding of PEEK, the reporter interviewed Mr. Li, the person in charge of Changzhou Junhua PEEK Company, who gave a brief explanation from two aspects.

Excellent special properties, expected to gain a long-term foothold in high-end industries in the future

PEEK (polyetheretherketone) has excellent special properties and has more advantages than other engineering plastics. It has strong high temperature resistance, and the allowable working temperature in the air is between 260 degrees and 310 degrees; good self-lubrication, can be used in areas such as sleeve bearings, sliding bearings, sealing rings, etc. that require strong friction performance; stable insulation, and excellent mechanical properties, can resist corrosion from chemicals, flame retardant, hydrolysis resistance, etc.

According to Mr. Li, the excellent mechanical properties of PEEK are due to its balance between toughness and rigidity, and its fatigue resistance to alternating stress is the best among all plastics. In addition to concentrated sulfuric acid, it is not threatened by general chemicals. It has also been verified as an ideal electrical insulator. It can maintain stable insulation in any harsh environment of high temperature, high pressure, or high humidity. Therefore, since its development and production, it has been applied to high-end industries such as aerospace, electronic appliances, and medical equipment.

Low cost and high effect, excellent performance is more feasible than traditional materials

In today’s society where science and technology are developing rapidly, traditional materials can no longer fully function in some special industries, so they must be replaced by some materials with excellent performance. PEEK plates and PEEK rods are more feasible than traditional materials because they are simple and convenient to use, low cost, and have a certain position in some special industries. For example: its high temperature resistance can be sterilized in cycles at a specific temperature, and this feature can be used in dental equipment and surgeries that have high requirements for killing bacteria and need to be used repeatedly.
