Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) KetaSpire® KT-880 NL PEEK, High melt flow for injection molding
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyketone; Polyetheretherketone (PEEK)

Material Notes: High melt flow for injection molding, not lubricated

KetaSpire® KT-880 NL is a high flow grade of unreinforced polyetheretherketone (PEEK) supplied in non-lubricated, natural-color pellet form. KetaSpire® PEEK is produced to the highest industry standards and is characterized by a distinct combination of properties, which include excellent wear resistance, best-in-class fatigue resistance, ease of melt processing, high purity and excellent chemical resistance to organics, acids and bases.

These properties make it well-suited for applications in healthcare, transportation, electronics, chemical processing and other industrial uses. KetaSpire® KT-880 NL can be easily processed using typical injection molding processes. This resin is also available as KT-880P in a natural-color coarse powder form for compounding.

A lubricated form of the resin is available as KT-880 in either natural (NT) or black (BK 95). The lubricated version is lightly dusted with calcium stearate (0.1% level) to aid with pellet conveyance in plastication screws.
