About
PEI ULTEM 1000 is a high-performance thermoplastic polymer that is known for its exceptional strength, heat resistance, and dimensional stability.
It is inherently flame retardant (UL 94 V-0 at 0.75 mm, with low smoke density) and resists many chemicals. Standard ULTEM 1000 is FDA food-contact compliant; biocompatibility (ISO 10993 or USP Class VI) is documented for ULTEM HU1000, so medical use requires that grade.
PEI (ULTEM 1000) is well suited to electrical connectors, insulators, and structural parts exposed to heat and flame.
