KEPSTAN^® 6003

KEPSTAN® is a high-performance thermoplastic material, based on PolyEtherKetoneKetone (PEKK) highly stable chemical backbone. KEPSTAN® is a unique member of the PAEK family, with distinctive structural features allowing for unrivalled possibilities in the control of crystallinity. These features include a high Ketone content and a co-polymer structure, incorporating Terephtalic and Isophtalic moieties. The 6000 Series corresponds to the pseudo-amorphous products of the KEPSTAN® family, offering the lowest melting point and the slowest crystallization behavior, while keeping Tg close to 160°C. These properties allow for lower processing temperatures (as low as 320-330°C), and lead to amorphous or semi crystalline structures, depending on processing technologies and cooling conditions. The properties reported in the data sheet correspond to the amorphous state of the PEKK polymer. KEPSTAN® 6003 is a high flow grade of pure unfilled PEKK resin designed to be suitable for processing technologies requiring fluidity, including among others cast film extrusion, injection molding, fiber impregnation, powder coating, bonding, welding and additive manufacturing.
