Polyimide
Polyimide is a super engineering plastic that is superior to other materials and has resistance to heat, wear and mechanical abrasion.
Recognized for its excellence, it was selected as the “World’s Best Product.”
About PLAVIS
Introduction (POLYIMIDE Molded Parts & Shape)
PLAVIS, the result of our independent polymerization technique, is a wholly aromatic polyimide and exhibits outstanding resistance to heat, wear, mechanical abrasion, radiation and chemicals. Also, due to its ease of manufacture and electrical insulation properties, this environmentally friendly, super engineering plastic is used in various advanced industries including mechanicals, high vibration, electrical/electronics, chemicals, automobiles, space, aviation and military.
Major Characteristics
Grades & Property
available in these four resin compositions to offer a range of property combinations.
| Item | Characteristics | |
|---|---|---|
| Compressive Molding | N/A(N) | Superior mechanical properties, extraordinary resistance to radiation, electricity, heat and chemicals, less gas emission |

| Antistatic (ESD) | Antistatic, good heat resistance and mechanical properties, surface resistance 106 ~ 109 | |
| Non filled (S1)(ESD) | Suitable for test sockets in semiconductor industry with excellent machinability, dimensional stability and laser cleaning stability | |
| Filled (SG) | Suitable for carriers or handling parts in high temperature processes with very high strength and dimensional stability at high temperatures | |
| Non filled (HM) | Suitable for test sockets in semiconductor industry with excellent heat resistance, dimensional stability and high flexural modulus | |
Direct Formed Parts
Direct formed parts are produced using the powder metallurgy process, which involves either compression molding or sintering processes depending on the shapes of parts. Our automatic, advanced manufacturing facilities allow small parts in various grades to be supplied in large quantities.
Machined Parts
Rod- and sheet-type parts are designed for a variety of environments and part shapes. Our machined parts (MP) are manufactured using highly advanced power compressive molding compared to direct formed parts. Due to the resultant absolute accuracy and perfectly even partial density, there are no specific direction properties, which makes PLAVIS machined parts more reliable and extraordinary than direct formed parts.
