Victrex® Peek(TM) Polymer Specifications Conform to Bosch Standards
WEST CONSHOHOCKEN, PA, USA - An increasing number of material grade specifications of Victrex Polymer Solutions fulfil Bosch standards; BN18-O1 and BN18-X1 which set out the properties and requirements for unfilled and reinforced PEEK (polyetheretherketone).
VICTREX® PEEK(TM) polymer - already successfully used in the automotive industry for many years - also fulfils the N2580-1 requirements. This standard defines prohibited and declarable substances contained in materials, thereby ensuring implementation of legal requirements and the Bosch customers' needs. Moreover, Victrex can confirm GADSL as well as RoHS compliance for the released grades. Additionally, all raw materials required for the manufacture of this high-performance thermoplastic have already been pre-registered pursuant to REACH.
Building on the decades of cooperation between Robert Bosch GmbH and Victrex plc, this is a further cornerstone in an excellent partnership founded on the quality of high-performance thermoplastics for use with highly loaded precision parts.
Based on over 30 years of experience in polyaryletherketones, Victrex has been supporting Robert Bosch GmbH for many years in continuous product improvement and process optimisation and today offers materials which meet Bosch's increasing requirements with regard to quality. When implementing projects, Bosch and its supplier network are supported by a Victrex engineering team offering material and process analyses and technical services.
