As a prime example of high-performance engineering plastics, PEEK has consistently held a core position in the field of high-end materials due to its superior mechanical strength, chemical inertness, and high-temperature resistance, and is widely used in cutting-edge industries such as aerospace, automotive manufacturing, petrochemicals, and electronics. However, the limitations of pure PEEK materials in terms of thermal conductivity (0.28~0.4 W/(m·K)) pose challenges for its application in demanding applications such as the protection of precision electronic components, thermal insulation of medical implants, and aerospace thermal insulation parts.
To overcome this bottleneck, we have innovatively launched PEEK5600LTC—a low thermal conductivity modified PEEK material specifically designed for thermal insulation needs. While inheriting the excellent properties of original PEEK, this material significantly reduces its thermal conductivity to 0.2 W/(m·K) through technological innovation, nearly 30% lower than pure PEEK5600G, providing a high-performance solution for the thermal insulation field.
PEEK5600LTC not only boasts superior thermal insulation performance but also excellent weather resistance and processing flexibility. Its particle characteristics make the injection molding process more efficient, helping to control production costs; at the same time, the molded products exhibit excellent dimensional stability, ensuring assembly accuracy and long-term reliability.
In terms of application areas, the PEEK5600LTC has demonstrated broad applicability:
In the electronics and electrical fields: In 5G base stations, it serves as a thermal insulation bracket for high-frequency connectors, effectively reducing thermal interference and ensuring the stability of signal transmission; in the field of new energy vehicles, it serves as a thermal insulation layer for battery modules, delaying the risk of thermal runaway and improving the safety and lifespan of battery packs.
In the aerospace field: it is used in engine nacelle heat shields, achieving a 60% weight reduction while improving heat insulation efficiency by 50%; in satellite thermal control systems, it effectively blocks the thermal shock of extreme temperature differences to precision instruments, extending the satellite’s service life.
In the industrial manufacturing sector: In semiconductor manufacturing, it is used as a fixture material to reduce heat conduction; in sensor housings, it insulates external heat to ensure the accuracy of data acquisition; at the same time, it is also used in components such as e-cigarette housings, heating plate bases, and atomizing chambers to provide a safe user experience with high temperature resistance and low smoke production; and high-temperature handles, thanks to their chemical resistance and flame retardancy, can work stably in high-temperature environments.
The launch of PEEK5600LTC represents not only a significant upgrade to the performance of PEEK materials, but also a powerful response to technical challenges in the field of thermal insulation. We look forward to this material leveraging its unique advantages in more areas to drive technological progress and innovative development in the industry.
