ThermaX™ PPSU [Polyphenyl Sulfone] is considered one of the highest performance plastics in the industry. This high-temperature amorphous polymer offers excellent mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance properties.
Basic Attributes
- Very high thermal properties superior to Ultem™ 1010
- Tg of 220°C and HDT of 205°C
- High Environmental Stress Crack Resistance (ESCR)
- Sterilization capable, including EtO gas, radiation, steam autoclaving, plasma, dry heat and cold sterilization
- Exceptional strength and modulus, even at elevated temperatures
- Outstanding impact resistance
- Highly resistant to even large (10 Mrd) doses of gamma radiation
- Resists most common automotive fluids including gasoline, antifreeze, transmission fluids, motor oils, power steering fluid, windshield washer fluid (ESCR, 24 hrs, 100°C)
- Inherently flame retardant with low smoke evolution and low smoke toxicity
- Excellent dimensional stability with low creep sensitivity, low and uniform coefficient of thermal expansion, and highly reproducible part-to-part dimensions.
