What ULTEM 1000?
What ULTEM 1000?
Product Description ULTEM 1000 resin is an amorphous, transparent polyetherimide (PEI) plastic offering a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 217°C. ULTEM 1000 resin is an unreinforced general purpose grade offering high heat resistance, high strength and modulus and broad chemical resistance up to high temperatures.
What kind of plastic is ULTEM?
polyetherimide
Ultem® (polyetherimide) is a semi-transparent high strength plastic material that can operate in high service temperature environments. Ultem® is resistant to hot water and steam and can withstand repeated cycles in a steam autoclave.
What is the density of ULTEM?
1.27 g/cm³
Polyetherimide/Density
What is the Tg of PEI?
The glass transition temperature of PEI is 217 °C (422°F). Its amorphous density at 25 °C is 1.27 g/cm3(. 046 lb/in³). It is prone to stress cracking in chlorinated solvents.
Is Pei machinable?
ULTEM PEI (polyetherimide) is a high-strength amorphous polymer. PEI has more than just excellent heat and flame resistance. There’s more than one particular type of ULTEM PEI you can machine, and each has slightly different properties for perfecting this material’s use in different applications.
Can ULTEM be colored?
ULTEM resins are available in transparent and opaque custom colors, as well as glass filled grades.
Is ULTEM 1000 FDA approved?
Ultem® 1000 is FDA and USP Class VI compliant and USDA and NSF approved. The standard color is amber.
Is ULTEM impact resistant?
ULTEM™ 9085 is primarily characterized by very high mechanical strength and impact resistance, with a high strength to weight ratio. The tensile strength is 70 MPa and elongation at break is approx. 5,3%. The impact strength of the material is approx.
Is Ultem brittle?
While Ultem® is also resistant to a broad spectrum of chemicals, its brittle nature makes it more prone to environmental stress cracking.
Is PEI a thermoplastic?
Overview. Polyetherimide (PEI) is a high performance engineering thermoplastic. PEI’s characteristics include high strength and rigidity at elevated temperatures, long term heat resistance, dimensional stability and good electrical properties.
What is Ppsu Poly?
Polyphenylsulfone (PPSF or PPSU) is a type of high performance polymer usually consisting of aromatic rings linked by sulfone (SO2) groups.
What is PES material?
Polyethersulfone (PES) is a transparent, high-performance polymer known for its dimensional stability at high temperatures in both air and water. At room temperature, PES is strong, rigid and ductile with excellent creep resistance.
