Victrex has signed a licensee agreement with PBI Performance Products, Inc., the manufacturer of Celazole® PBI and original developer of the T-Series technology, to manufacturer, sell, and market these products under the name VICTREX T-Series worldwide, excluding Japan.  Victrex will develop market applications and provide sales and technical support for the injection moldable thermoplastic.

Initially comprised of three patented grades, TU-60, TL-60, TF-60V, the new VICTREX T-Series products expand the current mechanical and tribological capability of Victrex`s existing products with enhanced stiffness, wear, hardness, and temperature performance that are made possible with the blending of VICTREX PEEK polymer and Celazole PBI.  VICTREX T-Series polymers are a great replacement for metals, and non-melt processing high temperature plastics.
The VICTREX T-Series Advantage:

• Excellent wear and strength at high temperatures for long-lasting components;
• Excellent thermal insulator (does not melt);
• Excellent hardness (25% Rockwall A Scale);
• Creep resistant (up to 30% better than other Victrex offerings);
• Increased design and processing flexibility;
• Superior chemical resistance versus metals and other high performance polymers;
• High purityand does not outgas;
• Naturally opaque.
