Category: Company News, News Date: 2017-07-22 Reading volume: 24

PEEK polymer new materials are playing an increasingly important role in people’s lives. A better life is what humans are constantly pursuing. Innovative technology, clean energy, low-carbon concepts… have brought about earth-shaking changes in our lives, and the realization of these innovations and concepts cannot be separated from the support of materials, especially new materials. PEEK new materials are serving to improve our lives and enhance our quality of life.

PEEK discs made into PEEK dental parts

PEEK dental parts made of PEEK discs make the elderly eat delicious food! PEEK materials have been used in oral implant accessories, such as abutments, healing caps, and healing abutments for more than ten years. PEEK is a new material specifically used in the field of oral restoration, replacing traditional ceramics and titanium alloys.

PEEK impeller for handheld rechargeable vacuum cleaner

Introduction: After the vacuum cleaner is connected to the power supply, the fan installed on the motor runs with the motor at a speed of 110,000 revolutions per minute. When the fan blades rotate, the air will be pushed to the exhaust port and continuously discharged, causing the air density in the front cavity of the fan to increase, and the air pressure also increases accordingly, while the air density in the rear cavity of the fan is relatively reduced. The pressure in the rear cavity of the fan is much lower than the pressure in the front cavity of the vacuum cleaner (that is, the ambient air pressure). The pressure difference between the front and rear cavities of the fan generates negative pressure inside the vacuum cleaner, and the suction formed can absorb dust. 

Advantages: The electric vacuum cleaner impeller is made of special engineering plastic PEEK5600CF30 through injection molding process, replacing the original metal impeller formed by casting mold. It not only improves production efficiency and reduces the weight of the impeller, but also greatly improves the quality of the vacuum cleaner. In particular, the dynamic balance performance of the impeller has been greatly improved, making the vacuum cleaner quieter and more stable when working.

PEEK for portable beverage refrigerators

Drinking beverages at an altitude of 10,000 meters is part of the “flight experience”. Mobile beverage machines can save time and replace bottles and cans. This beverage machine uses high-performance materials that have been certified for airworthiness. For example, the refrigerator is made of high-performance PEEK polymer. PEEK polymer is used in the internal water tank to ensure the original taste of the beverage. Moreover, this highly fluid material allows thin-walled water tanks to be produced through injection molding. The water tank can hold warm water or ice water. During use, especially in the case of long-term contact with hot water, this material must be non-degradable and will not contaminate the product. Thermoplastic PEEK material meets the requirements of the US Food and Drug Administration for food contact grade materials and has been used in the food processing industry for more than ten years.

PEEK bottle support for beer and beverage filling equipment

PEEK bottle supports are used in beer and beverage filling equipment. PEEK products are widely used in the filling and food processing and packaging industries. They comply with FDA food grade certification and other characteristics and advantages, and fully meet the stringent requirements of the food processing and beverage filling process such as cleaning, crushing, sterilization, oil-free lubrication, and aseptic filling. The company has cooperated with equipment manufacturers such as Newamstar to develop and produce nearly 300 types of PEEK parts.

As an ultra-clean polymer material, PEEK is mainly used in automated production lines such as beer brewing equipment, food and beverage machinery, and packaging machinery. PEEK meets the US FDA certification requirements and can be in direct contact with food. In many food processing applications, it has replaced stainless steel, polyoxymethylene, nylon, and polytetrafluoroethylene, which can improve the performance of equipment and produce food that is beneficial to human health.

PEEK mobile phone antenna

PEEK material actual use case: The outer shell partition strips on iPhone 7 are still made of PEEK material like iPhone 6. You can see it on the back of the exterior. PEEK is insulated, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant!

PEEK mobile phone panel roller

PEEK mobile phone panel roller improves electronic devices. Makes mobile phone panels clearer and more sensitive. Makes life more convenient. PEEK improves our lives.

High temperature resistant PEEK cable ties

PEEK cable ties can withstand high temperatures of 260°C and have superb heat resistance. They can be used in places where metal cable ties cannot be used and have high environmental resistance requirements. They also have high insulation properties and are safer to use.

PEEK non-stick pan, spatula

PEEK non-stick pans and spatulas: PEEK is lighter than metal and resistant to high temperatures. It is more wear-resistant than fluoroplastic coatings, less prone to scratches, and there is no need to worry about toxic components being decomposed at high temperatures.

PEEK Stent

PEEK stents: PEEK stents are 70% lighter than stainless steel stents.

PEEK parts on electronic cigarettes

PEEK parts and PI parts on e-cigarettes can better protect your lungs and help you stay away from tobacco hazards!

PEEK gears used in coffee machine micro gear pumps

On a hot summer day, when you have a cool fruit juice drink in KFC, our PEEK gears and bushings are playing a key role.

PEEK eyeglass frames

PEEK glasses frame: 9g Normal glasses frame: 23g

Mentor Optical Co., Ltd. of Hong Kong has launched the Plasteel series of glasses, which weigh only 9 grams instead of the usual 23 grams. It is worth mentioning that PEEK polymer makes it possible to make glasses lightweight. In addition, the chemical resistance and thermal stability of this material bring biocompatibility and biostability. In addition to being lighter than traditional eyeglass frames, Plasteel glasses are also extremely durable and can pass 360° bending tests intact. They are lightweight and very flexible.
