Mitsubishi Chemical's Ketron CR PEEK

 Growing trends in LNG and hydrogen have led to the need for new materials that can:

• Extend the range of temperatures

• Withstand extreme conditions

• Offer more reliable sealing by replacing traditional fluoropolymers

#KetronCRPEEK family with outstanding performance

• Unique properties for static sealing applications in extreme cold, including cryogenic environments

• Extremely durable; withstands exposure to temperatures of -196°C (-320.8°F)

• No compromise on excellent tensile strength and low compressive modulus


Ketron CR plastics provide superior ductility and lower sealing force compared to commonly used polymers for cryogenic applications.


The latest Material and Equipment Standards and Codes (MESC) SPE 77-302 (valves-general requirements) and SPE 77-200 (valves in low temperature and cryogenic service) by Shell include CR PEEK as a designated material for cryogenic valve applications.
