PEKK (Polyetherketoneketone)
Ultra-High Performance Thermoplastic for Extreme Industrial Environments
PEKK (Polyetherketoneketone) is an advanced high-performance engineering thermoplastic from the PAEK family, designed for applications requiring exceptional mechanical strength, outstanding thermal stability, and superior chemical resistance. Similar to PEEK but with enhanced rigidity and wear performance, PEKK is an excellent choice for demanding industries where reliability under extreme conditions is essential.
Its outstanding resistance to heat, aggressive chemicals, steam, and radiation, combined with excellent dimensional stability and low creep, makes PEKK an ideal material for aerospace, medical, oil & gas, semiconductor, automotive, and industrial engineering applications.
Key Features of PEKK
PEKK combines exceptional mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties, making it one of the most reliable engineering plastics available for high-performance applications.
- Excellent mechanical strength at elevated temperatures
- High impact resistance, even at low temperatures
- Outstanding fatigue resistance for long service life
- Excellent wear and sliding performance
- Very low creep under continuous mechanical load
- Superior resistance to chemicals, solvents, and non-oxidizing acids
- Excellent resistance to hot water and steam (over 180°C)
- High resistance to gamma and X-ray radiation
- Outstanding dimensional stability
- Suitable for precision machining and demanding engineering components
Industrial Applications
Thanks to its excellent combination of strength, heat resistance, and durability, PEKK is widely used in industries where conventional plastics and metals may fail.
