>> 2. Affected by material fluctuations :
PEEK's raw materials mainly include fluorone, phenol, tetrafluoroethylene, bisphenol A, tetrafluoroacetyl chloride, etc.
The price of these basic raw materials will directly affect the production cost and price of PEEK due to the fluctuation of oil price.
The price of fluorone is high and accounts for a large proportion of PEEK's production cost. The rise and fall of its price has a significant impact on PEEK's price
PEEK is prepared by high temperature polycondensation of hydroquinone and 4,4 '- difluoro benzophenone in the presence of alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate. This complex polymerization process gives PEEK a unique molecular structure. Its molecular chain contains a large number of aromatic rings, ether bonds and ketone bonds. These chemical bonds interact with each other, bringing excellent stability and excellent performance to PEEK. Ether bonds make the molecular chain flexible, while aromatic rings and ketone bonds provide high strength and high temperature resistance, making PEEK have good mechanical properties and chemical stability.
As the most basic PEEK material, PEEK resin has high purity and has the basic properties of PEEK,such as good chemical corrosion resistance, high thermal stability and certain mechanical strength.
It is the standard price of all PEEK material that from PRES.
PEEK resin is a common choice in some fields that have relatively less stringent requirements on material properties and need to use PEEK's basic characteristics, such as seals for ordinary chemical equipment, high-temperature resistant parts of small electronic equipment, etc.
Glass fiber reinforcement can significantly improve the mechanical properties of PEEK material. The strength, stiffness and dimensional stability of PEEK are greatly improved . This kind of material is often used to manufacture mechanical structural parts, such as some parts in automobile engines, transmission parts of industrial equipment, etc.
Its price is higher than PEEK resin, which is due to the increase in the cost of reinforcement process and glass fiber.
The comprehensive performance of PEEK material reinforced by carbon fiber is more outstanding. Carbon fiber is high strength and high modulus. the mechanical properties of PEEK are greatly improved, especially the tensile strength and bending strength, while maintaining high temperature resistance and chemical corrosion resistance.
It is often used in aerospace, high-end medical devices and other fields with high requirements for material performance, such as aircraft wing components, artificial joints and so on. Due to the high cost of carbon fiber and the complex preparation process, PEEK carbon fiber reinforced material has a higher price than PEEK resin and PEEK GF.
By special modification process, conductive substances are added to PEEK to make it conductive or antistatic.
This material is widely used in electronics, semiconductors and other industries. It can be used to manufacture the shell of electronic equipment, the packaging material of integrated circuits, etc., to prevent the damage of electrostatic to electronic components.
PRES can customize the surface resistance of PEEK material according to customers' needs, making it conductive and antistatic.
As this product is customized, the price needs to be negotiated.
carbon fiber and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) are added to PEEK to create a material with excellent wear resistance. Carbon fiber enhances the strength of the material, while PTFE has a very low friction coefficient, which significantly improves the wear resistance of the material. This material is often used in occasions requiring high wear resistance, such as mechanical seals, bearings, sliding blocks, etc. Its price is usually about 1200-2000 yuan per kilogram, which is higher than that of ordinary PEEK materials, reflecting its special properties and complex preparation process.

PEEK has a series of excellent performance, making it irreplaceable in the high-end field.
First of all, it has excellent high-temperature resistance, can be used for a long time at a high temperature of 250 ℃, and can withstand higher temperatures in a short time. This feature makes it an ideal material for high-temperature applications such as aerospace and automotive engines.
Secondly, PEEK has good mechanical properties, high strength and stiffness, and excellent fatigue resistance. It can still maintain stable performance under repeated stress. Moreover, it is highly resistant to chemical corrosion and is hardly eroded by common chemicals, so it can be used in harsh chemical environment.
These excellent performances make PEEK indispensable in high-end manufacturing, medical treatment, electronics and other fields, and also support its high price.
PEEK's production is highly dependent on raw materials, while the prices of its main raw materials, such as 4,4 '- difluoro benzophenone, fluctuate greatly. The production process of these raw materials is complex and involves many fine chemical processes. Any change in the production process, such as the shortage of raw materials, the increase of production process improvement costs, and the fluctuation of international market prices, will directly affect their prices.
For example, if a raw material supplier has production failures or is affected by geopolitical factors, resulting in a reduction in supply, the price of raw materials will rise, which will drive PEEK's production costs up and ultimately be reflected in the product price.
Pres has a unique competitive advantage in PEEK materials. The company has its own pelleting&modification plant, which enables it to strictly control the production process of PEEK materials and ensure that it meets high standards from the selection of raw materials to the quality of final products. Through the independent granulation and modification process, pres can customize and produce PEEK materials with various special properties according to the different needs of customers to meet the diversified market demands.
At the same time, pres also has a mold&injection molding plant. This complete industrial chain layout makes it perform well in cost control. The integrated production mode from raw materials to final products greatly reduces the costs of intermediate links, such as transportation costs, procurement costs and communication costs. This cost advantage is directly reflected in the product price, which makes pres's PEEK products have higher performance price ratio in the market, can provide customers with more competitive prices, and occupy a favorable position in the market competition.
PEEK material plays a key role in many high-end fields with its unique composition, diverse types and excellent performance. Despite its high price, with the continuous progress of technology and the development of the market, enterprises with comprehensive advantages such as pres are expected to make PEEK materials more widely used in more fields by optimizing production and cost control.
