New polymer material entering our daily life——PEEK
What do you think of when you mention PEEK military materials and aviation plastics? Is it the majestic J-20? Or the Long March 5 carrier rocket and Beidou satellite that make the Chinese proud and excited? PEEK seems to be very far away from ordinary people. In fact, this star at the top of the plastic pyramid has quietly appeared in our lives… Xiao Li is a housewife. Her mornings start with tedious housework. Today, she opened the newly bought Dyson vacuum cleaner with great anticipation and started a whole day of battle. “The dream of every housewife is to have a Dyson vacuum cleaner.” Wireless and convenient. While the suction is strong, the noise is very low. The “heart” of Dyson – the motor impeller with a speed of more than 60,000 revolutions is made of PEEK plastic. It has high strength but does not produce harsh noise like metal. Countless female compatriots like Mrs. Wang, who have been suffering from housework for a long time, are its fans. After cleaning, her husband Mr. Wang also woke up from the fatigue of overtime work the night before, picked up a pair of inconspicuous and special plastic chopsticks and started to eat breakfast. Some time ago, the new crown epidemic was raging, and Xiao Li bought a lot of new household items, disinfection cabinets, ultraviolet lamps, air purifiers… The most special one is this pair of plastic chopsticks, which are made of PEEK material and can be disinfected in the disinfection cabinet. It has been used for a week and has not deformed at all. Xiao Li was also pleasantly surprised to find that this pair of plastic chopsticks is particularly handy for frying meatballs. After being frying in the oil pan, it will not bubble and melt like ordinary plastic, nor will it be easy to blacken like bamboo and wooden chopsticks. Mr. Wang went out with the lunch box prepared by his wife. When the clock pointed to 12 o’clock, Xiao Li finally finished all the housework and began to enjoy the rare leisure time in the afternoon: lying on the sofa, flipping through a few unfinished books, wearing his favorite headphones, and familiar folk songs flowing with the warmth of the sun. The singing voice is spacious and light, thanks to the PEEK headphone diaphragm, which restores the sound quality. As the sun sets, Xiao Li comes to the kitchen to prepare dinner and Mr. Wang’s work meal tomorrow. The coating of the old rice cooker has peeled off and bubbled, and it is unusable. The housewife’s pot is her weapon in the kitchen battlefield. A good housewife cannot cook without rice, let alone without a pot. Fortunately, the PEEK coated rice cooker that Mr. Wang won at the annual meeting solved the urgent problem. The old does not go, the new does not come. The PEEK coated pot is smoother, more durable and easier to clean than the traditional rice cooker. The progress of technology always quietly changes the lives of every ordinary person. Xiao Li and Mr. Wang’s ordinary day is over, and the story of PEEK continues. From airplanes and missiles to today’s pots and pans, thanks to the efforts of countless companies and engineers, the expensive and unfamiliar materials in the past have become affordable and benefit the general public. I believe that in the near future, there will be more PEEK products in our lives. The swallows that used to fly in front of the halls of the rich and powerful are now flying into the homes of ordinary people. Shandong Junhao not only pays attention to the application of PEEK in industrial fields such as military aerospace, medical and electronic semiconductor industries, but also focuses on developing more applications of PEEK in fast-moving consumer goods such as daily life, so that materials can serve the public and new materials can make life better!
