PEEK Ceramic Semiconductor Sockets

HONYPLAS®PEEK ceramic EXTRUDED Test Socket Material is an advanced proprietary ceramic-filled PEEK compound created to meet the requirements for tight tolerance, high frequency IC chip socket test fixtures.Ceramic polyether ether ketone sheet (ceramic PEEK) is a newly developed proprietary product with excellent dimensional stability and tolerance control under a wide range of temperature and humidity conditions. The ceramic peek grade maintains the minimum level of impact strength, stiffness and creep. Compared with some traditional materials, such as imidized polymers such as polyamideimide (PAI), ceramic peek polymer™ has greater hydrolytic stability based on this grade. And, when compared with ceramics, it is half the weight and provides greater impact resistance and toughness. It also has excellent processing performance and wear performance. Other advantages include insulation applications with good dielectric properties, tight spacing and fine diameter holes that provide excellent machining, which require the production of integrated circuit test sockets, which have excellent machining performance, low burrs, and can be used for fine test socket processing. The pin can be 0.25mm, and the pin pitch can be 0.3mm. It is the first choice for mobile phone test sockets and high-frequency IC chip test sockets.

Advantages: 

Low water absorption, not easy to deform

It has many excellent mechanical properties such as high temperature impact resistance, processing resistance, friction resistance, etc.

Ceramic PEEK is insoluble in almost all solvents except concentrated sulfuric acid and has excellent chemical resistance

Ceramic PEEK resin has higher heat resistance than other special plastic materials, and can still maintain good performance under high temperature and high pressure conditions.

HONYPLAS®PEEK is manufactured may use Victrex® PEEK 450G or ZYPEEK® 550G polymer. Strong, stiff plastic with outstanding chemical resistance; performs over a wide range of temps

The excellent performance of PEEK material is mainly manifested in the following aspects:

1. High temperature resistance

PEEK has a high glass transition temperature and melting point (334°C), which is one of the reasons why it can be reliably used in applications requiring heat resistance. Its load thermal deformation temperature is as high as 316℃, and its continuous use temperature is 260℃.

2. Mechanical characteristics

PEEK is a plastic with a balance between toughness and rigidity. In particular, its excellent fatigue resistance to alternating stress is the most outstanding among all plastics, comparable to alloy materials.

3. Self-lubricating

PEEK has outstanding sliding properties among all plastics, and is suitable for applications that strictly require low friction coefficient and abrasion resistance. In particular, the self-lubricating performance of PEEK modified with carbon fiber and graphite in a certain proportion is better.

4. Chemical resistance (corrosion resistance)

PEEK has excellent chemical resistance. Among ordinary chemicals, only concentrated sulfuric acid can dissolve or destroy it. Its corrosion resistance is similar to that of nickel steel.

5. Flame retardancy

PEEK is a very stable polymer. Samples with a thickness of 1.45mm can reach the highest flame retardant standards without adding any flame retardants.

6. Peel resistance

PEEK has good peel resistance, so it can be made into thin-covered wires or magnet wires, and can be used under harsh conditions.

7. Fatigue resistance

PEEK has the best fatigue resistance of all resins.

HONYPLAS®PEEK has been widely used in many fields such as petrochemical, electronic and electrical, instrumentation, machinery and automobiles, medical and health, aerospace, military nuclear energy, etc.

HONYPLAS®PEEK Product grade: 

1.HONYPLAS®PEEK Virgin : Brown-gray, made of pure polyether ether ketone resin as raw material, has good toughness and impact resistance among all PEEK grades. Pure PEEK can be sterilized using convenient sterilization methods (steam, dry heat, ethanol and Y-ray), and the raw material composition of PEEK complies with EU and US FDA regulations on food compliance, making it suitable for medical, pharmaceutical and food processing industry.

2.HONYPLAS®PEEK PTFE: Black, the result of adding PTFE, graphite and carbon fiber, makes it a bearing-grade plastic, its superior friction performance (low friction coefficient, wear resistance, higher peak pressure limit) .

3.HONYPLAS®PEEK 30GF: Brown-gray, the material is filled with 30% glass fiber reinforced plastic, which has better rigidity and creep resistance than pure PEEK, and better dimensional stability. It is the best choice for manufacturing structural parts. Can withstand a fixed load for a long time at high temperatures

4.HONYPLAS®PEEK 30CF: Black, this material is filled with 30% carbon fiber reinforcement, has better mechanical properties (higher elastic modulus, mechanical strength and creep) and more wear resistance than PEEK 30GF, and carbon fiber reinforced plastic is better than unreinforced plastic PEEK's plastic has 3.5 times the thermal conductivity to dissipate heat from the bearing surface faster
