PE6773 PPSU Rod, Polyphenylsulfone Rod

PPSU Bar Description

PPSU (Polyphenylsulfone) is a novel thermoplastic engineering polymer belonging to the polysulfone (PSF) family. This amorphous polymer contains sulfone groups and aromatic rings in its molecular backbone and provides excellent clarity alongside high hydrolytic stability. PPSU Rod withstands repeated steam sterilisation, making it ideal for critical applications.

Main Features:

• High Clarity: Provides excellent transparency, suitable for visual inspections.
• High Hydrolytic Stability: Resistant to hydrolysis, ensuring durability in humid or steam-saturated environments.
• Resistance to Steam Sterilisation: Can be repeatedly autoclaved or steam sterilised without compromising performance.
• Stiffness and Toughness: Retains excellent mechanical and electrical properties across a wide range of temperatures and conditions.
• Flame Retardant: Exhibits inherent flame resistance and low smoke generation.
• Chemical Resistance: High resistance to chemicals and solvents, ensuring long-term reliability.
