Application

PEEK can be sulfonated and coated on nanofiltration(NF) membranes which can be used in the fabrication of antifouling based NF membranes. Sulfonated PEEK (up to 50-70 degree of sulfonation(DS)) can be used in the formation of proton exchange membranes(PEMs) for fuel cells based applications.

General description

Poly(oxy-1,4-phenyleneoxy-1,4-phenylenecarbonyl-1,4-phenylene)(PEEK) is a semi-crystalline polymer with good thermo-mechanical properties and high chemical resistance which can be used as engineering plastics.
