Flexible PEEK loops have a clean, straight cut for low dead volume connections
- Inert to most organic solvents
- Wall thickness, temperature, exposure time and concentration of organic solvents affect the durability of PEEK tubing
- Concentrated nitric acid and sulfuric acid weaken PEEK tubing
- THF, methylene chloride and DMSO cause PEEK to swell
- Actual volumes can differ because of tolerance of tubing bore
- Accuracy of large PEEK loops is ±14%, intermediate loops ±21%, small loops ±65%
