Clean energy
PEEK materials meet the high-performance requirements posed on the parts used in the nuclear industry. Radiation resistance is one of the key properties of materials used in the nuclear power industry. Common thermoplastic materials may become brittle when exposed to electromagnetic or particle type ionizing radiation. Thanks to PEEK’s energy stable chemical structure, PEEK-made parts continue to work normally after receiving high doses of ionizing radiation. With their radiation resistance, excellent electrical properties at high temperatures, outstanding mechanical strength, good chemical corrosion resistance, very low moisture absorption rate and excellent hydrolysis resistance, PEEK materials are the ideal choice for high-performance parts in the nuclear power industry.
