VESTAKEEP® film 0FH90 is a cast film based on 100% unreinforced polyether ether ketone (PEEK). The film is amorphous with a matte/glossy surface finish. The material features low extrusion related internal stresses and is ideal to thermoform 3D parts from, e.g. small speaker membranes. Application examples: - electrical insulation
- thermoformed thin parts
- loudspeaker membranes
Important notice: Amorphous PEEK film undergoes crystallization at above its glass transition temperature around 150°C. This should be taken into account upon processing as well as in final applications. The crystallization can only be reversed by heating to the melt followed by quenching.VESTAKEEP® film properties include: - High continuous use temperature
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Tough and impact resistant
- Low creep
- Low abrasion, low coefficient of friction
- Low water absorption
- Electrical insulation
- Low flammability
- Free of flame retardants, no halogens
- Approved for food contact
- Low weight
- Recyclable (neat PEEK resin)
- Stabile towards ionizing irradiation
- RoHS compliant
Secondary processes: VESTAKEEP films can be processed by many secondary processes, e.g.:- Die and water-jet cutting
- Surface treatment (corona, plasma, flame)
- Thermoforming
- Adhesive bonding
- Welding, sealing, printing
