Outline
PEI (polyetherimide) has excellent strength and performance up to 170°C. It has good electrical insulation and dielectric characteristics.
UL 94-V-0 is highly resistant to high-power energy radiation (gamma and X-rays).
Characteristic
Duratron PEI is a high-strength, flame-resistant, and heat-resistant amorphous polymer.
It can be used at 170°C, making it an ideal material for applications that require high strength, heat, and dielectric properties for various frequency ranges to be kept constant.
It has low water absorption, is resistant to acidic solutions, and can withstand repeated high-pressure sterilization cycles.
The Duratron U2300 PEI is a glass-enhanced version of the Duratron U2300 PEI (with 10, 20, and 30% fiberglass enhancements, respectively), and it retains most of the useful properties of the base Duratron U1000 PEI while being more rigid and dimensional.
Duratron PEI complies with FDA and USP Class VI.
In the case of medical Duratron PEI.
Duratron PEI is commonly used by cutting into reusable medical tools, analytical instruments, electrical/electronic insulators (including many semiconductor components) and various components that must be maintained in strength and stiffness at high temperatures.
Applications
-Surgical probe: Surgical probe processed by Duratron PEI rod (Probe) can be sterilized and disinfected, and has high strength and rigidity. (Previous materials: acetal, polysulfone)
-Manifold: The manifold cut from the pharmaceutical process equipment to Duratron PEI plate is resistant to high temperature chemicals and steam for sterilization. (Previous material: Aluminum)
-Insulators: High frequency insulators used in communication parts of microwave ovens can be cut and used by Duratron PEI products. (Previous material: Ceramic)
-Clamp: The high voltage electrical insulation and flame resistance of this product is suitable for clamping to connect image displays and printed circuit boards used in aircraft, tanks and ships. (Previous material: acetal)
