Greene Tweed Highlights Innovative Arlon® 3000XT Thermoplastic for Industry’s Most Demanding Applications

Advanced material delivers unmatched high-temperature, high-pressure technical performance

Greene Tweed, a leading global manufacturer of high-performance seals, thermoplastics, composites, and engineered components, highlights its innovative Arlon® 3000XT thermoplastic for a wide range of industries and applications. Arlon® 3000XT provides excellent thermal stability and chemical resistance, very low moisture absorption, remarkably low wear, and high-impact resistance.

Backed by over 30 years of experience in high-pressure, high-temperature oilfield applications, Arlon® 3000XT is the world’s first crosslinked PEEK-based polymer that delivers proven stability in some of the harshest industrial conditions in the world, delivering superior high-temperature performance over other plastics at up to 300°C. Due to its salient dielectric properties, this remarkable thermoplastic can provide better electrical insulation and dissipation, reliable signal throughput, and superior noise-abating characteristics over existing materials, and is capable of load bearing over the glass transition point (Tg). It also delivers significantly reduced susceptibility to moisture and steam.

Arlon 3000XT®’s chemical and creep resistance, mechanical strength at high temperatures, and capacity for high-volume manufacturing make it an attractive solution for key components of hydrogen fuel cells and electrolyzers, as well as oil and gas applications. This thermoplastic can also be molded into custom seals, insulators, stock shapes, electrical connectors, and other custom geometries.

Greene Tweed combines expertise in high performance materials with advanced engineering design skills to provide custom solutions to market leaders for their most challenging and critical applications.
