What is ISO 23153-1 about ?
ISO 23153 discusses plastics. ISO 23153-1 is the first part of the multi-series ISO 23153 and discusses the designation system and basis for specifications. ISO 23153-1 establishes a system of designation for polyetheretherketone (PEEK) moulding and extrusion materials which can be used as the basis for specifications. Polyetheretherketone polymer chains are composed of phenylene rings linked in (1,4) position by a sequence of two ether groups followed by one ketone group.
The grades of PEEK plastics are differentiated from each other by a classification system based on appropriate levels of the designatory properties
