Westlake PES by Westlake Plastics Company is a PES (Polyether Sulfone) plastic material.
General Information
Product Description

High resistance to heat and combustibility, low smoke emission, and transparency are the combination of properties possessed by stock shapes extruded from PES. These, coupled with light weight, good impact resistance, dimensional stability, and chemical resistance, make stock shapes extruded from PES resin useful in the electrical/electronics, aerospace/aircraft, automotive, and mass transit industries. PES stock shapes are also applicable for heat and fire safety, food service, and hospital and health care items.
Manufacturing Capabilities:
- Rod: 0.1875 to 6 in diameter
- Sheet: 0.035 to 4 in thick
- Film: 0.001 to 0.029 in thick
- Slab: 0.25 to 4 in thick
