High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) is a colourless organic polymer thermoplastic used in engineering applications. PEEK polymers are obtained by step-growth polymerization by the dialkylation of bisphenolate salts. Typical is the reaction of 4,4'-difluorobenzophenone with the disodium salt of hydroquinone, which is generated in situ by deprotonation with sodium carbonate. The reaction is conducted around 300 °C in polar aprotic solvents - such as diphenylsulphone. PEEK is a semicrystalline thermoplastic with excellent mechanical and chemical resistance properties that are retained to high temperatures. The Young's modulus is 3.9 GPa and its tensile strength 90 to 100 MPa. PEEK has a glass transition temperatures at around 143 °C and melts around 343 °C (662 °F). It is highly resistant to thermal degradation as well as attack by both organic and aqueous environments. It is attacked by halogens and strong Bronsted and Lewis acids as well as some halogenated compounds and aromatic hydrocarbons at high temperatures.
