VICOTE™ 701, 702, 703, 704, 705 Powder Coatings. VICOTE™ is the brand name for VICTREX™ PEEK polymer-based coatings. VICOTE Coatings are only available through Victrex or its preferred coater network. Contact Victrex for further details.
PROPERTIES: VICOTE 701-705 grades are specially developed powder coatings. They are available in various average particle sizes from 10 - 50 microns. The powders are off-white in color and are available in various melt viscosities depending on the film thickness and level of melt flow required. Typical film thicknesses range from < 100 microns up to 500 microns. Film thicknesses above 1 mm are possible by building up the coating thickness by the hot flocking technique. Like other non-coating grades of VICTREX PEEK polymer, VICOTE Coatings are thermoplastic in nature and exhibit flow above the melt temperature. When processed using the correct guidelines, the coatings will exhibit the excellent properties that VICTREX PEEK polymer is renowned for.- High continuous use temperature of 260°C
- Excellent wear, abrasion and cut through resistance at these high temperatures
- Excellent chemical and radiation resistance
- Low level of extractables
- Hydrolysis resistant
- Inherently flame retardant
FDA COMPLIANCE: Materials and articles manufactured from VICOTE grades 701, 702, 703, 704, 705 comply with the compositional requirements of regulation 21 CFR 175.300 for resinous and polymeric coatings of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of the United States of America. Regulation 21 CFR 175.300 further specifies that the finished coated part which is in contact with food is subject to extractive limitations. Compliance with any applicable extractive limits can only be demonstrated by testing carried out on the finished article. |
