OVERVIEW of Ketron® PEEK-CLASSIX® LSG |
Ketron ® PEEK-CLASSIX ® LSG PolyEtherEtherKetone stock shapes are produced from Invibio ® PEEK-CLASSIX ® white resin. This material exhibits a unique combination of mechanical properties, temperature and chemical resistance. The composition of the Invibio PEEK-CLASSIX White resin complies with the regulations that apply in the Member States of the European Union (Directive 2002/72/EC, as amended) and in the United States of America (FDA) for plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs.
KETRON PEEK-CLASSIX LSG stock shapes have also been successfully type tested for their compliance with both United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and ISO 10993-1 guideline requirements for Biocompatibility Testing of Materials, and they come with full traceability from resin to stock shape.
