Extremely low strength at the weld line
Fenómeno do problema
The tensile strength at the weld line of PEEK products is only 30-40% of the base material
Análise das causas
The temperature drops sharply at the melt convergence, causing insufficient molecular chain diffusion and entanglement; PEEK molecular chains are rigid, with diffusion rate far lower than flexible chains; the convergence surface cools quickly
Solução
Increase the mold temperature to above 200°C to extend the fusion window of the weld surface; optimize gate design to minimize the number of weld lines; use sequential valves to control the melt convergence timing
Conclusão principal
PEEK weld lines are the main weak link in the product structure
