A mixture of polystyrene and polyphenylene ether (PPE) is known as polyetherimide (PEI) resin. The two polymers in the PPX blends are compatible in all amounts, which makes them distinct from other resin systems.
Due to its heat, solvent, and flame resistance, polyetherimide is frequently used in chemical lab equipment as well as pharmaceutical process equipment manifolds, containers, and accessories.
Polyetherimide is utilised in place of metal in several structural applications due to its long-term creep resistance.PEI is made when a diamine like m-phenylene diamine is combined with a bisphenol-A dianhydride like tetracarboxylic dianhydride, which is made when bisphenol A and phthalic anhydride react.
The Global Polyetherimide resin market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
PEI Resin from SABIC is Now Available for Use in Single-Mode Fibre Optics The new polyetherimide resin (PEI) has a much lower coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) than the traditional ULTEM grades.
The dimensional stability of the collimator lenses must be maximised, and single-mode fibre alignment must be ensured, by having a low CTE.Additionally, without sacrificing signal quality, the new grade offers near-infrared (IR) transmission.
In place of glass, ULTEM 3310TD resin offers the effectiveness of high-volume micromolding, eliminates the need for pricey secondary procedures, increases design freedom, and reduces part weight.
Single-mode fibre optics, a developing datacenter infrastructure technology for high-speed transmission of enormous data quantities over long distances, is being further adopted with the assistance of SABIC.
In comparison to conventional aspherical glass lenses, their new lower-CTE ULTEM 3310TD resin offers greater design and production capabilities, as well as possible cost reductions.
It is an excellent choice for single-mode optical transceiver lenses. With regard to multi-mode fibre optic components, the existing ULTEM resins have had decades of customer success. SABIC continues to innovate with focused, high-performance products as the market adopts new developments including growing use of single-mode fibre optics.
While not as low as that of glass, the new material's CTE increases the prospects for thermoplastics to be used in single-mode fibre optics. Additionally, ULTEM 3310TD resin has a number of benefits over glass, including the capacity to be micro-molded into a variety of shapes without the time-consuming secondary grinding and polishing necessary for aspherical glass lenses.
