OA/AV Device Components

Taking advantage of its dimensional stability, excellent creep properties, and good sliding properties, PES can be applied in the following applications.

• Various oil-less bearings, guides and gears for copiers and printers
• Optical pickup components
• , etc

Applications Exposed to Hot Water (Cooking Utensils, Medical Equipment Applications, etc.)

Taking advantage of its hot water resistance, steam resistance (160°C), dimensional stability, and creep resistance, PES can be applied in the following applications.

• Valve joints for hot water and steam
• Insulating materials for corrosion-resistant electrodes
• Temperature sensor cells
• Hot water pump parts
• Ultrafiltration system parts
• , etc

Plastic Substrate for LCD (including Extrusion Processing)

PES films made by injection molding or extrusion processing have excellent transparency (89% total light transmittance), heat resistance, and dimensional stability, and those with ITO (indium tin oxide) thin layer formed by vapor deposition are used as LCD substrates for the following electronic devices.

• Card type calculators
• Pagers
• Electronic organizers
• , etc
