Polyether Ketone Ketone (PEKK) is a semi-crystaline thermoplastic in the Polyaryletherketone family. It has higher heat resistance than PEEK, offers exceptional chemical resistance, & can withstand high mechanical stress. It is inherently flame retardant and has unique tribological properties unlike any other ultra performance polymer currently available for 3d printers. PEKK has a higher Tg than PEEK. PEKK is also easier to print compared to PEEK. PEKK has now overtaken PEEK as the best FDM 3d printing material. LUVOCOM® 3F PEKK 50082 Material Properties
