Ultem® is a high temperature thermoplastic

Polyether Imide, also trademarked as Ultem®, is a high temperature thermoplastic that features high tensile strength along with good flame and chemical resistance, commonly specified for aerospace, automotive, medical, and packaging applications.

Its flame resistance combined with low smoke emission makes it an important material for moulded portions
of aircraft interiors. The resulting engraved mark exhibits high contrast, due in part to the 10% glass fill. This application demonstrates the feasibility of laser marking electrical connector housings moulded from a Polyether Imide formulation that includes a 10% glass fill reinforcement.
