Kadel ® Polyketone Specifications
GENERAL PROPERTIES
Kadel ® Polyketones have outstanding high
temperature resistance (above 500°F / 260°C), exceptional chemical
resistance, excellent mechanical properties, and high PV wear resistance.
They provide a wide range of cost/performance options.
Typical Kadel ® applications include chemical
processing, aviation and aerospace composites, compressor parts, bearings
and seals, wire and cable coatings, and wear rings.
