However, its advantages extend far beyond moisture-sensitive materials. Even polymers traditionally classified as non-hygroscopic such as PVC, PE, and PP can experience significant improvements in processing performance through controlled preheating. By introducing a well-designed pellet heating system before extrusion, manufacturers can enhance process stability, improve energy efficiency, and extend equipment life. ๐Ÿงช Approaching the Glass Transition Temperature (Tg) Raising the polymer temperature before it enters the extruder brings it closer to its glass transition temperature (where applicable), facilitating the onset of plasticization and reducing the mechanical load on the screw during the initial stages of pro...

Crystallinity imparts excellent resistance to a wide range of liquids. It also offers superb fatigue performance. PEEK is insoluble in all common solvents and does not undergo hydrolysis. Used for 1000 hours in steam or high-pressure water without significant property degradation. Hence, PEEK has an excellent sterilization resistance at high temperature. Peek has good dimensional stability, inherent purity, and biocompatibility. ๐Œ๐ž๐œ๐ก๐š๐ง๐ข๐œ๐š๐ฅ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐ญ๐ข๐ž๐ฌ #PEEK polymer...
