Celazole® TKL-60 is a self-lubricating blend of PBI-PEKK (polyetherketoneketone). The main advantages of TK-Series over T-Series are the higher Glass Transition (Tg) temp and improved dimensional stability in thin walled parts. TK-Series offers a 25C higher Tg of 171C vs. 145C for T-Series. TK-Series is slightly more amorphous reducing the tendency to warp in thin/straight-wall parts. Processing can be more challenging with Celazole TK-Series when compared to Celazole T-Series and will have limited availability.
