Victrex® PEEK CA30 granule (30% Carbon reinforced Polyether Ether Ketone) in stock granular form. 

- Available in various weights

PEEK CA30 (Polyetheretherketone with 30% Carbon Fiber) is a high-performance thermoplastic composite that combines the inherent properties of PEEK with the reinforcement of carbon fibers. The addition of carbon fibers enhances certain characteristics of PEEK, making it suitable for demanding applications that require high strength, stiffness, and wear resistance.

Key features and applications of PEEK CA30 granules:

Mechanical Strength: The inclusion of carbon fibers significantly improves the mechanical properties of PEEK CA30. It offers high tensile strength, stiffness, and impact resistance, making it suitable for structural components in various industries.

Wear Resistance: Carbon fiber reinforcement enhances the material's resistance to wear and abrasion, making PEEK CA30 suitable for applications where parts are subjected to friction and mechanical stress.

Thermal Stability: PEEK is known for its excellent thermal stability, and the addition of carbon fibers usually does not compromise this property. PEEK CA30 can withstand high temperatures, making it suitable for applications in elevated temperature environments.

Chemical Resistance: Similar to pure PEEK, PEEK CA30 exhibits excellent chemical resistance to a wide range of aggressive chemicals and solvents.

Electrical Conductivity: The presence of carbon fibers provides PEEK CA30 with some level of electrical conductivity. This can be advantageous in applications where static dissipation or electrical conductivity is required.

Applications:

PEEK CA30 is commonly used in aerospace, automotive, oil and gas, medical, and industrial applications. It is suitable for components such as gears, bearings, pump parts, and structural components in harsh operating conditions.


Processing of PEEK CA30 Granules:

When using PEEK CA30 granules, it's essential to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for processing. Here are general steps involved in processing PEEK CA30 granules:

Drying: PEEK is hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the environment. Drying the granules before processing is crucial to prevent issues such as porosity in the final product.

Extrusion or Injection Molding: PEEK CA30 can be processed using techniques such as extrusion or injection molding. The choice depends on the specific requirements of the final product.

Mold Temperature: Maintaining the appropriate mold temperature is essential for achieving the desired mechanical properties and surface finish.

Cooling: Proper cooling of the molded part is crucial to ensure dimensional stability and prevent warping.

Always refer to Victrex® technical datasheets and processing guidelines for specific recommendations on temperature profiles, mold design, and other processing parameters. This ensures that the material is processed correctly and that the final components meet the desired performance criteria.
