230°C to 425°C Extreme and imidized plastic shapes

Semi-finished PI, PAI, and PBI products for extreme heat and demanding operating environments

Our extreme / imidized materials are used in industries ranging from semiconductors to energy generation, providing superior thermal resistance and reliability across a broad temperature range up to 425°C. Other properties include low friction, high mechanical strength, extreme wear resistance, and greater impact resistance than most other advanced thermoplastics.

This portfolio includes the highest-performing engineering thermoplastic available today: Duratron® PBI. This suite of products gives you exceptional properties in temperature resistance and performance.

If your application involves extreme temperatures, vacuum chambers, high voltage, and more, these offerings can help solve your toughest challenges in aerospace, transportation, semiconductor, and other demanding industries. Plus, we provide both standard stock shapes and direct forming capabilities to meet your precise requirements.
