PES
Overview :
Polyetherimide (PEI) is an amorphous, amber transparent, non-crystalline high-performance engineering thermoplastic with exceptional qualities. It offers high strength and rigidity at elevated temperatures, long-term heat resistance, dimensional stability, and good electrical properties. As an amorphous, high-temperature resin, PEI is inherently flame retardant and exhibits resistance to various chemicals. Its creep resistance allows for replacing metals in structural applications, and electrical properties remain stable under variable conditions. PEI's versatility makes it valuable in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and electronics.

Q4
Can polyetherimide be 3D printed?
Yes, Polyetherimide can be 3D printed. PEI is known for its excellent thermal and mechanical properties, making it a suitable material for 3D printing, especially in highly demanding applications. It is used in resin form for creating 3D printed, high-strength prototypes and parts.
Q5
Can you provide the quality certificate of the products?
Of course. All of our products are proven to be perfectly compliant with FDA, REACH and RoHS safety regulatory, and so on. If you need, you can contact us to check the relevant documents.
Q6
Is polyetherimide expensive?
The cost of Polyetherimide (PEI) varies depending on factors such as grade, form (sheets, rods, filaments), and supplier. Generally considered a high-performance engineering thermoplastic, PEI tends to be more expensive than common plastics. The unique combination of properties, including high mechanical strength and thermal resistance, contributes to its higher cost. Specific pricing details would depend on the source and market conditions at the time of purchase. It's advisable to consult suppliers or manufacturers for current and specific pricing information.
Q7
Are you manufacturer or trading company?
We are integral part of industry and trade. Both the agency of some products, but also a factory for product development and production.
Q8
About bulk order leading time?
It will take about 15~30 working days from order confirmation to production completion. Specific communication can be coordinated to the time acceptable to both side.
Q9
How to Process PEI?
Unlike most other polyimides, PEI is suitable for processing by typical methods such as injection molding, extrusion, thermoforming, and compression molding.
