VICTREX™ PEEK polymers:
Materials For Demanding Applications
- - One of the world’s highest performing thermoplastics
- - High-performance engineering polymer that excels in extreme conditions
Excellent high temperature performance:
See details of other thermal properties and compare the Victrex polymer grades:
Excellent resistance to a very wide range of chemicals over a range of temperatures, retaining high levels of mechanical strength and generally with little swelling or discolouration.
Excellent strength, stiffness, long-term creep and fatigue properties.
See details of mechanical properties and compare the Victrex polymer grades:
High abrasion and cut through resistance combined with a low coefficient of friction.
Victrex materials are used for tribological components due to their outstanding resistance to wear in high pressure and velocity environments.
Victrex materials are often used as an electrical insulator with outstanding thermal, environmental resistance and mechanical performance.

Victrex materials are inherently pure with very small amounts of low molecular weight volatile organics, resulting in exceptionally low outgassing and extractables even in high vacuum environments.
Our medical grade polymers are biocompatible, and one of the most chemically resistant thermoplastics available; it exhibits a superior combination of strength, stiffness and toughness, making it ideally suited for medical device applications such as drug delivery, dental abutments, catheters, blood management and surgical instruments.

Victrex high performance polymers are not attacked by prolonged exposure to water, sea water or steam which makes them an ideal choice for use in applications such as medical components, subsea equipment, and valve components.
Victrex materials are some of the highest performing materials melt processable using conventional thermoplastic processing equipment.
Due to its high molecular stability, PEEK polymers can be re-melted and reprocessed repeatedly with minimal change to its properties. This helps its environmental footprint and can ensure that waste material from manufacturing processes can be re-used economically.
