VESTAKEEP® - PEEK enhanced by experience

Under the brand name VESTAKEEP® Evonik Industrie's High Performance Polymers Business Line supplies aromatic polyetheretherketone (PEEK) resins for manufacturing components for long-term use in harsh environments. These parts are found, e.g., in the semiconductor processing, oil exploration, industrial, transport, and medical markets.

VESTAKEEP® PEEK is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic that can be melt processed by all common techniques: injection molding, compression molding, extrusion, and coating and is best known for the following properties:

Chemical and environmental inertness
Heat resistance
High heat deflection temperature
Dimensional stability due to low water absorption
High hardness and abrasion resistance
Good strength at elevated temperatures
Good electrical properties
Good radiation resistance
Inherent flame resistance

This comprehensive property profile makes VESTAKEEP® the material of choice when it is necessary to find a substitute for metals in critical components in harsh, demanding environments.
