chemical structure of OXPEKK Oxford Performance Materials, Inc.,
is committed to supplying high performance thermoplastic polymers of the
highest quality and consistency. Our standard products include
neat
formulations, carbon-filled, glass-filled, and various polymer composites.
Specialty grades can be developed to meet your applications requirements. We
also offer a line of OXPEKK color concentrates developed specifically for our
OXPEKK materials. Present color offerings are blue, green, brown, black and
tan. FDA approved concentrates are also available. If you currently are a
user of other commercially available polyketone thermoplastic polymers, we encourage you
to compare. We are confident you will see the advantage of our specialty
polymers and polymer composites. We specialize in high temperature plastics,
corrosion resistant polymers, and conductive polymers. If your current polyketones can’t take the heat, aren’t strong enough for your application
environments, or are difficult to process, we have the solutions you need.
When you purchase a polymer product from us, you can count on world-class
technical support, individualized service, and proactive attention to your
process and ultimate application. More
About Our Specialty Polymers and Polymer Composites Highest
Glass Transition Temperature (Tg)
OXPEKK is the highest Tg polyketone commercially available. Tg represents
the temperature at which the amorphous region enters a mobile phase.
Mechanical properties and chemical resistance degrade above Tg. Consequently,
if you need high temperature plastics for an extreme environment, the higher
the Tg the better.
- OXPEKK-C Tg 162°C
- OXPEKK-SP Tg 155°C
- PEEK Tg 142 °C
- PEK Tg 155°C
Top of page Superior Processing - Slower
crystallization rate of OXPEKK and improved materials flow
In low-cost materials, where cycle times are critical, fast-crystallizing
materials are often very desirable. In higher performance materials,
yield is often a more important consideration. Slower crystallizing
and improved flowability of OXPEKK result in lower molded stress
and better dimensional control.
Superior Properties
Due to our ketone-rich structure, OXPEKK specialty polymers
offer the highest thermal and mechanical properties available
in a polyketone thermoplastic product. OXPEKK thermoplastic polymer
products feature the following qualities:
- Highly temperature resistant
- Corrosion resistant
- High purity
- Melt processable
- Electrically conductive or insulative
- Offered in unfilled or polymer composites
