Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) AvaSpire® AV-481 Polyaryletherketone (PAEK) (Unverified Data**)
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyketone
Material Notes:	AvaSpire® AV-481 is an unreinforced PAEK (polyaryletherketone) that offers improved ductility and impact strength relative to PEEK while offering similar or superior melt processablity to high melt flow PEEK that is available on the market. Chemical resistance and environmental stress cracking resistance of AV-481 are also on part with that of unreinforced PEEK. This product has been specially formulated for applications requiring an excellent balance of chemical resistance and mechanical toughness along with very high melt flow characteristics to allow filling of very thin and long flow length parts like cable ties. The heat resistance of this grade is also quite high with a heat distortion temperature in excess of 200° C and very good long term oxidative stability at elevated temperatures. This combination of properties makes AV-481 well-suited for applications in automotive, aerospace, electrical/electronics, and other industrial uses. AvaSpire® AV-481 is an injection molding grade and can be easily processed by typical injection molding grade and can be easily processed by typical injection molding methods using standard equipment. The material is available in two standard colors: beige (AV-481 BG15) and black (AV-481 BK95). Because this material is naturally lighter in color than typical PEEK resin, AV-481 provides grater versatility in its ability to be colored. Beige: AV-481 BG15 Black: AV-481 BK95 Availability: Africa & Middle East Asia Pacific Europe Latin America North America Features: Ductile Fatigue Resistant Good Chemical Resistance Good Dimensional Stability Good Impact Resistnace High Flow High Heat Resistance Uses: Aircraft Applications Automotive Electronics Electrical/Electronic Applications Industrial Applications Forms: Pellets Processing Method: Injection Molding Information provided by Solvay
