PEI (Polyetherimide) is an amorphous engineering thermoplastic offering exceptional mechanical, thermal and electrical properties. It can be easily machined with conventional metalworking tools, and can be painted, hot stamped, printed or metallized.
Benefits of PEI (ULTEM™)
Excellent dimensional stability
Good UV and hydrolysis resistance
Transparent to visible infrared and microwave radiation
Inherent flame retardancy
