Finish Plastics - High Performance Plastics

Borotron HD050 is a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) formulation enhanced with 5% elemental boron that has been used to provide extra shielding against neutron radiation. The combination of boron within…

Vespel/Polyimide

DuPont Vespel is a high-performance polyimide resin. Vespel performs well with or without lubrication under conditions which would destroy other plastics or severely wear many metals. Vespel parts function…

Ultem / PEI (polyetherimide)

Ultem / PEI (polyetherimide) is a high-strength amorphous polymer with excellent heat and flame resistance (carrying a flammability rating of 94-V-0) with little smoke output. It performs continuously…

Turcite

Turcite is an internally lubricated, acetal-based material (with properties similar to those of Delrin AF) designed for applications with demanding wear and friction requirements. Turcite creates little…

Torlon / PAI (Polyamide-imide)

PAI (polyamide-imide) is a melt-processable plastic that has exceptional physical and chemical properties. It performs well under severe stress conditions at continuous temperatures as high as 500°…

Ryton / Techtron / PPS (Polyphenylene Sulfide)

Ryton / Techtron / PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) products offer the broadest resistance to chemicals of any high performance plastic. They have no known solvents below 392°F and are inert to steam,…

Rexolite (Cross Linked Polystyrene)

Rexolite is a thermoset, rigid and translucent plastic produced by cross linking polystyrene with divinylbenzene. The material is known for its unusually stable electrical properties into the Giga-hertz…

Radel / PPSU (Polyphenylsufone)

Radel is a high-performance thermoplastic offering better impact and chemical resistance than polysulfone or polyetherimide (Ultem). Radel has exceptional toughness and outstanding hydrolysis resistance…

Polysulfone (PSU)

Polysulfone describes a family of thermoplastic polymers. These polymers are known for their toughness and stability at high temperatures. They contain the subunit aryl-SO2-aryl, the defining feature…

Polyether ether ketone (PEEK)

Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) is a colourless organic polymer thermoplastic in the polyaryletherketone (PAEK) family, used in engineering applications. PEEK (polyetheretherketone) is a semicrystalline,…
