Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials Sultron™ LSG PPSU Extruded, Unfilled, Polyphenylsulfone (ASTM Product Data Sheet) (Unverified Data**)
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU)
Material Notes:	Sultron™ Life Science Grade (LSG) Polyphenylsulfone PPSU biocompatible shapes offer superior hydrolysis resistance as measured by steam autoclaving cycles, making them an excellent choice for medical device applications. Sultron™ LSG PPSU components also resist common acids and bases, including commercial washing solutions, over a broad temperature range. Often favored across the medical and life sciences industry for their wide array of color options, Sultron™ LSG PPSU components can be found in sterilization trays, dental and surgical instrument handles, and in fluid handling coupling and fitting applications. Quadrant Engineering Plastic Products is now Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials.
