Product Description
KetaSpire KT-820P is a low flow grade of unreinforced polyetheretherketone (PEEK) supplied in a natural-color coarse powder 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-820P is intended for extrusion compounding. This powder is also available as KT-820NT in a natural-color pellet form for injection molding.
