“PEEK is considered as one of the most powerful high-performance polymers due to its mechanical, thermal and chemical resistance. It is used as a replacement for steel, aluminium and other polymers,” said the firm. “In the environment of semiconductors and electronics industry, PEEK and carbon-fibre-reinforced PEEK can realise your designs for connectors, wafer carriers, contact sockets and other electronics parts.”

The polymer is strong, works at well over 100°C and is capable of enduring extreme circumstances.
