Our range of products includes:
VICTREX® PEEK polymer
VICTREX PEEK polymer is a linear, aromatic, semi-crystalline polymer. It provides a unique combination of high performance properties over a wide range of temperatures and extreme conditions. As an alternative to metals and other materials, VICTREX PEEK polymer offers a lightweight, durable, cost-effective solution with wear, chemical and corrosion resistance even at elevated temperatures. It outperforms metals and other traditional materials due to its exceptional combination of properties.
APTIV® Films
Victrex APTIV® film provides all of the high performance properties of VICTREX PEEK polymer in a tough, thin, flexible format. Available in a broad range of thicknesses, from 6 to 750 microns, and widths up to 1450 mm, the films facilitate greater design flexibility than widely used PVF films. APTIV film has a unique combination of properties that make it the highest performing, most versatile thermoplastic film available.
VICTREX Pipes
VICTREX Pipes are durable, lightweight pipe and tube extruded from VICTREX PEEK polymer. They represent the latest advance in both material and manufacturing technology to deliver greater long-term reliability in increasingly harsh and aggressive environments.
VICTREX® PEEK polymer-based composites
Composites made with VICTREX PEEK polymer offer solutions with significant weight reduction compared to traditional metal and metal alloy parts. Complex shapes can be quickly and easily produced with thermoplastic composites. The potential to integrate and consolidate multiple components results in reduced cost and part count. Thermoplastic composites offer higher performance and are more environmentally-friendly to process when compared to thermoset composites.
VICOTE® Coatings
Eco-friendly VICOTE coatings, available in powder and aqueous dispersions, deliver resistance to high temperatures, exceptional scratch and wear resistance, high strength and durability. Victrex’s PEEK-based VICOTE coatings can be applied using electrostatic, thermal spray or conventional dispersion spray techniques.
