PEEK LF Powder — Custom Mesh

RENU™ PEEK LF NAT-MP### provides the same flexible custom mesh sizing as TDS-003 in the low-flow PEEK grade. Milled from clean post-industrial low-viscosity PEEK scrap, this product covers mesh sizes from 20 to 170 mesh and is selected for applications where controlled melt flow during processing is important, combined with a non-standard particle size distribution. Ideal for compression molding of complex geometries, thermal spray with lower-energy systems, and research applications requiring specific particle size ranges.

PEEK LF Powder — 140 Mesh

RENU™ PEEK LF NAT-MP140 is a precision-milled, low-flow grade PEEK powder derived from clean post-industrial recycled polyetheretherketone. The low-flow (LF) designation reflects feedstock derived from lower-viscosity PEEK scrap, yielding a powder with slightly different melt-flow characteristics while retaining excellent structural and thermal properties. The 140-mesh particle cut is suited for compression molding, press-and-sinter operations, and demanding powder coating applications where a more controlled flow during processing is preferred. Properties closely approximate virgin PEEK LF at significantly reduced material cost.

PEEK HF Powder — 140 Mesh

RENU™ PEEK HF NAT-MP140 is a precision-milled, high-flow grade polyetheretherketone (PEEK) powder produced from clean, post-industrial recycled PEEK scrap. Ambient-temperature milling preserves the polymer’s molecular architecture, delivering thermal and mechanical properties that closely match virgin resin at substantially reduced cost. The 140-mesh cut (nominal 105 µm top size) is optimized for powder coating, selective laser sintering (SLS), compression molding, and thermal spray applications. The high-flow (HF) designation indicates this grade is derived from higher-viscosity PEEK feedstock milled to produce a freely-flowing powder suitable for broad industrial processing.
