Description
DURATRON Ul000 polyetherimide (PEI) is an amorphous polymer offering high strength and excellent flame and heat resistance. It performs continuously to 340°F (170°C), making it ideal for high strength/ high heat applications, and those requiring consistent dielectric properties over a wide frequency range. It is hydrolysis resistant, highly resistant to acidic solutions and capable of withstanding repeated autoclaving cycles.
DURATRON U2100, U2200 and U2300 are glass-reinforced versions (10, 20, and 30%, respectively) of DURATRON U1000 which provide even greater rigidity and improved dimensional stability while maintaining many of the useful characteristics of basic DURATRON. DURATRON U1000 is FDA and USP Class VI compliant. FDA compliant colors of Ultem are also available on a custom basis.
DURATRON commonly is machined into parts for reusable medical devices, analytical instrumentation, electrical/electronic insulators (including many semiconductor process components) and a variety of structural components requiring high strength and rigidity at elevated temperatures. Quadrant offers DURATRON U1000 and DURATRON U2300 as standard products.
