What type of material is Ultem?
plastic material
Ultem® (polyetherimide) is a semi-transparent high strength plastic material that can operate in high service temperature environments. Ultem® is resistant to hot water and steam and can withstand repeated cycles in a steam autoclave.
What is the density of Ultem?
1.27 g/cm³Polyetherimide / Density
Is Ultem heat resistant?
Ultem® is the ideal thermoplastic choice for demanding, high-heat applications. This polyetherimide material can withstand continuous operating temperatures of 340° F while maintaining strength and rigidity. It is easily fabricated and bonded and offers excellent chemical resistance and high dielectric strength.
Can ULTEM be machined?
There’s more than one particular type of ULTEM PEI you can machine, and each has slightly different properties for perfecting this material’s use in different applications.
Is ULTEM 1000 FDA approved?
Ultem® 1000 is FDA and USP Class VI compliant and USDA and NSF approved. The standard color is amber.
Is ULTEM brittle?
While Ultem® is also resistant to a broad spectrum of chemicals, its brittle nature makes it more prone to environmental stress cracking.
Is ULTEM waterproof?
ULTEM™ – safety for the environment and users It is weatherproof and does not react in contact with the soil.
Can you melt Ultem?
Due to its amorphous nature, ULTEM 9085 does not have a constant melting point.
