Use of Victrex® PEEK™ Thermoplastic to Drive New Designs, Processing Flexibility, and Cost Reduction in Aerospace Components 2002-01-2923
Aerospace engineers continually strive to identify materials which provide processing flexibility, reduce manufacturing costs, and prove durable in harsh environments. PEEK™ polymer, successfully displaces metals, traditional composites, and other plastics in a growing number of aerospace applications due to its exceptional properties and ability to be easily fabricated into high tolerance parts through multiple manufacturing techniques.
