APTIV™ FILMS 1000

APTIV 1000 series films are the unfilled semi-crystalline films made from VICTREX™ PEEK polymer. The film provides a material solution for engineers in ultra-high performance applications.

APTIV films are a comprehensive range of versatile, high-performance films, the use of which can facilitate reduced systems costs, improved performance and enhanced design freedom.

APTIV 1000 has a unique combination of properties providing high temperature performance, light weight, mechanical strength, durability, excellent radiation, hydrolysis and chemical resistance, electrical insulation, wear and abrasion resistance, excellent barrier properties with high purity, good flammability without the use of flame retardants, low toxicity of combustion products, and low moisture absorption in a film format. Inherently halogen free and ease of processing makes APTIV films a technology enabler for our customers and end users.
