Description

Material Notes:
KetaSpire KT-880 NL is a high flow grade of unreinforced polyetheretherketone (PEEK) supplied in non-lubricated, natural-color pellet form. KetaSpire PEEK is produced to the highest industry standards and is characterized by a distinct combination of properties, which include excellent wear resistance, best-in-class fatigue resistance, ease of melt processing, high purity and excellent chemical resistance to organics, acids and bases. These properties make it well-suited for applications in healthcare, transportation, electronics, chemical processing and other industrial uses. KetaSpire KT-880 NL can be easily processed using typical injection molding processes. This resin is also available as KT-880P in a natural-color coarse powder form for compounding. A lubricated form of the resin is available as KT-880 in either natural (NT) or black (BK 95). The lubricated version is lightly dusted with calcium stearate (0.1% level) to aid with pellet conveyance in plastication screws.Information provided by Solvay Specialty Polymers.
