Gonow Polyetherimide (PEI) is an amorphous thermoplastic that is manufactured from SABIC Innovative Plastics’ resin.
Gonow PEI is extremely rigid, dimensionally stable, and able to withstand continuous operating temperatures of 340˚F. Because it offers superior resistance to autoclave sanitizing and is FDA/USDA compliant, Gonow PEI is routinely specified for reusable machined components used in the medical and pharmaceutical industries.
This material also offers electronic and semiconductor designers unmatched dielectric properties that are maintained over a wide frequency range.
Unfilled Gonow PEI is dark amber in color and semi-transparent.
For applications that require improved stiffness, glass fiber filled grades with filler levels of 10%-40% are available.
Gonow Plastics’ Gonow PEI stock shapes are UL V-0 rated and available in a full range of heavy gauge rod, plate and tubular bar sizes.
