KetaSpire® KT-810FP is the fine powder form of KT-810 resin. KT-810 is an ultra-high molecular weight natural PEEK resin having a melt viscosity ranging from 0.51-0.65 kPa-s as compared to 0.38-0.50 kPa-s for standard high-viscosity PEEK grades such as KT-820 and its fine powder analog KT-820FP. KetaSpire® PEEK is produced to the highest industry standards and is characterized by a distinct combination of properties, which include excellent chemical resistance to organics, acids and bases; exceptional retention of mechanical properties up to 300°C (572°F); best-in-class fatigue resistance; excellent wear resistance; ease of melt processing; and high purity. The KT-810 grade achieves a greater level of mechanical toughness than previously possible with PEEK, yet it is still processable by conventional methods including extrusion, injection molding, and compression molding. KetaSpire® KT-810FP is designed for compression molding applications such as machined parts and stock shapes wherein the fine powder form is easier to work with in a compression molding process. The KT-810FP comes with a median particle size that is typically in the 35-50 micrometers (µm) range. The KT-810 grade is available for extrusion and injection molding processing in natural pellet form under the grade name KT-810 NT.
