The materials belonging to the polyimide group are characterised by an unusually complex property profile with a large number of excellent individual characteristics and so take up a position at the tip of the material pyramid.
Ensinger offers rods, plastes and tubes as well as customized direct formed parts. Polyimides (PI) are produced by polycondensation.
They are non melting due to the high amount of ring-shaped, mostly aromatic chain links and high molecular weights. The manufacturing of semi-finished products or direct-forming parts is therefore done exclusively by sintering techniques.
