Solvay hikes PEEK and PAEK polymers capacity at Indian plant

摘要

Solvay is increasing ultrahigh performance polymers capacity at the company's Panoli, India, plant by 25% to support strong demand for KetaSpire and AvaSpire, the company's poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK) and poly(aryl ether ketone) (PAEK) polymers, respectively. "Thanks to their outstanding qualities of strength, toughness, excellent friction and wear properties, and heat and chemical resistance, Solvay's KetaSpire and AvaSpire are used in markets growing at least 8.0-10% annually," the company says.
