SABIC’s ULTEM 1000 PEI resin is an amorphous, transparent polyetherimide (PEI) plastic offering a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 217°C. This inherently flame retardant resin has UL94 V0, V2 and 5VA ratings and is RoHS compliant. ULTEM 1000 resin is an unreinforced general purpose grade resin offering high heat resistance, high strength and modulus with broad temperature resistance.
SABIC ULTEM is an amber transparent solid, without any additives, it has inherent flame retardancy and low smoke. The oxygen index is 47%, the combustion grade is UL94-V-0, and the density is 1.28~1.42g/ cm3. PEI has strong high temperature stability, even if it is unreinforced PEI, it still has good toughness and strength. Therefore, the superior thermal stability of PEI can be used to make high-temperature heat-resistant devices. It has excellent mechanical properties, electrical insulation properties, radiation resistance, high and low temperature resistance and wear resistance, and can penetrate microwaves. PEI also has good flame retardancy, chemical resistance and electrical insulation properties. The glass transition temperature is very high, reaching 215°C. PEI also has very low shrinkage and good mechanical properties in the same direction. Adding glass fiber, carbon fiber or other fillers can achieve the purpose of reinforcement modification; it can also form a heat-resistant polymer alloy with other engineering plastics, and can be used for a long time at a working temperature of -160-180 °C.
ULTEM (PEI) resin is an amber colored amorphous thermoplastic that offers excellent flexibility, flame retardancy, chemical, heat and UV resistance and greatly expanded design freedom . ULTEM resins are also widely used in healthcare and food service applications.
