SABIC ULTEM™ Resin 1000F Polyetherimide (PEI)
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyetherimide (PEI)
Material Notes:	ULTEM 1000F Resin is an unreinforced amorphous polyetherimide (PEI) resin that may offer a high glass transition temperature (Tg) of 217°C and global food compliance (FDA, CN, EC). Features are excellent mechanical, electrical and dimensional properties up to high temperatures. The material provides low staining, microwave transparent and cold to the touch solutions. The material may offer very good chemical resistance for an amorphous material and is inherently flame retardant offering UL94 V0 and 5V ratings. The material is RoHS compliant. The base material is transparent amber colored but is also available in custom colors - transparent and opaque. Features: Low Food Stain,Transparent to Microwave radiation and near IR,Radiation Resistance (gamma, x-ray),UV-C Resistance,Low Extractable,High Stiffness,Hydrolytic Stability,Chemical Resistance,Low Smoke and Toxicity,Good Mechanicals in Broad Temperature Range,Low Creep Sensitivity,Low Shrinkage,Amorphous,High Strength,High Heat Resistance,Good dimensional stability,Flame Retardant,Good Processability,Food Contact Acceptable,Transparent Information provided by SABIC
