KetaSpire^® PEEK (polyetheretherketone) and AvaSpire^® modified PEEK can be used to fabricate ultra-thin films with thicknesses down to 5 microns (0.005 mm). This allows engineers to save space and reduce weight without compromising performance.

KetaSpire PEEK for proven performance

• Excellent long-term thermal oxidative stability
• Continuous-use temperature of 240°C (464°F)
• Outstanding chemical resistance to organics, acids and bases
• Excellent resistance to hot water and steam
• Best-in-class fatigue resistance
• Low flammability

  AvaSpire modified PEEK for enhanced performance

• Improved ductility and toughness for better puncture resistance
• Higher HDT than comparable PEEK grades
• Better adhesion to substrates
• Lower flammability

Solvay offers a number other ultra polymers and high-performance plastics that are suitable for film. Typical applications include capacitors, electrical insulation, flexible circuitry substrates, composite film layers, specialty laminates, optical films, speaker cones, moisture barriers, liners, and aerospace films such as thermal and acoustical insulation blanket bags.
