Semi-finished products manufactured with ULTEM® resin
This amorphous polymer remarkably combines thermal, mechanical and electrical properties with a low level of flammability, whereby the emission of fumes during combustion is poor.

These features make PEI 1000 perfectly fit for use in electric/electronic equipment, as well as in structural components requiring great resistance and stiffness at high temperatures.
