With the continuous advancement of science and technology, the wire and cable industry has higher and higher requirements for materials. PEEK cable (polyetheretherketone), as a high-performance engineering plastic, has been widely used in the field of wires and cables due to its excellent physical and chemical properties. TST CABLES will introduce the application and advantages of PEEK materials in the field of wires and cables in detail.
1. Characteristics of PEEK materials PEEK materials are known for their high temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, high insulation performance, wear resistance and other characteristics. It can maintain performance at continuous operating temperatures up to 260°C (500°F), which makes PEEK an ideal material in the field of wires and cables. In addition, PEEK also has good flame retardancy and radiation resistance, making it stable even in special environments.
2. Application of PEEK in motors, generators, transformers and solenoids In motors, generators, transformers and solenoids, PEEK insulated wires are favored for their wear resistance, dielectric strength and chemical corrosion resistance. These devices usually work under high temperature and high pressure, and PEEK materials can ensure reliability and safety under these extreme conditions. The application of PEEK materials not only improves the working efficiency of equipment, but also extends the service life of equipment.
3. Application in the aerospace field In the aerospace field, PEEK cables have become the preferred material for ultra-high temperature conductors due to their high and low temperature resistance, flame retardancy, radiation resistance and good mechanical properties. These characteristics enable PEEK cables to maintain their performance in extreme space environments and ensure the stable operation of the power system of spacecraft.
4. Application in the petroleum field The application of PEEK cables in the petroleum field is mainly concentrated in the winding wires and connecting wires of submersible pump motors. The oil extraction environment is usually accompanied by high temperature, high pressure and chemical corrosion. The high temperature resistance and chemical corrosion resistance of PEEK materials make it an ideal choice. In addition, the wear resistance of PEEK cables also helps to reduce maintenance costs and improve production efficiency.
5. Application in nuclear power plants In nuclear power plants, PEEK cables can be used as winding coils for nuclear island drive mechanisms and used for a long time under irradiation conditions. The radiation resistance of PEEK materials enables it to maintain its performance in nuclear radiation environments and ensure the safe operation of nuclear power plants.
6. Application in the field of marine vessels PEEK insulated wires are widely used in ships due to their excellent properties such as seawater resistance, light weight, small size, and flame retardancy. These properties enable PEEK cables to work stably and for a long time in the marine environment, improving the safety and reliability of ships.
7. Application in the field of rail transit PEEK cables are suitable for high-speed traction locomotives. Due to their high temperature resistance and chemical corrosion resistance, they can maintain performance at high speeds and in harsh environments. This not only improves the safety of rail transit, but also reduces maintenance costs.
8. Application in the automotive field In the automotive field, PEEK materials are used for wire protection, weight reduction, and fuel efficiency. PEEK drawing fiber is an ideal braiding material for wires and cables due to its wear resistance. This helps improve the performance and fuel economy of the car.
9. Application in the medical field PEEK materials are used in wires and cables in medical equipment due to their chemical inertness and radiation resistance. These properties enable PEEK cables to provide stable power transmission in medical equipment, ensuring the safety and effectiveness of the equipment.
10. Application in the field of electronics and electrical appliances PEEK cable, due to its C-class insulation material characteristics, can also ensure excellent insulation performance under high temperature, high pressure and high humidity environments, and is suitable for electronic products such as mobile phones and electronic cigarettes. This helps to improve the performance and reliability of electronic products.
11. Application of optical fiber protection PEEK can be made into multi-cavity tube products through extrusion molding. Such products enable multiple channels to encapsulate optical fibers individually in one outer diameter and provide optical fiber sheaths. This application protects the optical fiber from the influence of the external environment and ensures stable signal transmission.
