(Syensqo) solvay PAEK AvaSpire AV-742 SL30 Polyaryletherketone resin

AvaSpire V-742 SL30 is a wear resistant grade of AvaSpire polyaryletherketone (PAEK) designed to provide low wear rates in both non-lubricated and lubricated environments.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

AvaSpire AV-742 SL30 is a wear resistant grade of AvaSpire polyaryletherketone (PAEK) designed to provide low wear rates in both non-lubricated and lubricated environments. In addition to outstanding wear resistance, the resin also offers the outstanding combination of ultra-performance attributes commonly known for PEEK. These include: chemical resistance, mechanical strength and stiffness, even at elevated temperatures, as well as long-term and high-temperature thermal-oxidative stability. AV-742 SL30 is formulated with the ternary anti-friction/anti-wear additive system comprised of carbon fiber, graphite, and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). It offers wear resistance performance comparable to PEEK grades with this modifier system while being more cost-effective.
This high flowing (low viscosity) grade is designed for use in the injection molding of thin, intricate or complex shapes, or parts in otherwise challenging molding configurations. If the part geometry is such that low viscosity is not a processing necessity, it is recommended that the companion grade AV-722 SL30 be considered first to take advantage of the higher molecular weight of that grade, which results in greater wear resistance as well as better overall mechanical performance in terms of toughness-related properties. The resin can be melt processed using conventional equipment and techniques.
Potential applications for AV-742 SL30 include bushings, bearings, wear strips, wear rings, rollers, and other parts used in sliding friction components. The resin is black in color in its natural state.
