ULTEM PW1000 Resin is an unreinforced amorphous polyetherimide (PEI) resin that may offer a high glass transition temperature (Tg) of 217°C and potable water certifications, NSF61, REG4, KTW-BWGL, W270, ACS, WRAS. The materials also have food contact compliance (FDA, CN, EC). Features are excellent mechanical, and dimensional properties up to high temperatures and under wet conditions. The material may offer very good hydrolytic and chemical resistance for an amorphous material and is inherently flame retardant offering UL94 V0 and 5V ratings. The material is RoHS compliant. Certified colors are natural (transparent amber) and black.
All colors are customizable. Refer our ColorXpress tool to check color availability
