Unreinforced, general purpose for injection molding Acudel® 22000 is a modified polyphenylsulfone. It is a high-heat, high-performance resin formulation exhibiting very good hydrolytic stability, excellent resistance to acids and bases and good resistance to stress cracking under a broad range of chemical environments. In addition, Acudel® 22000 resin exhibits robust toughness and improved notch resistance compared to both Udel® polysulfone and Veradel® polyethersulfone, although slightly lower than that of neat Radel® polyphenylsulfone. In general, the performance profile of Acudel® 22000 resin falls between polysulfone and polyphenylsulfone. In addition to its high mechanical and thermal performance attributes, Acudel® 22000 resin also offers very good electrical properties over a broad temperature range as well as inherent flame retardancy. - Natural: Acudel® 22000 NT15 - Black: Acudel® 22000 BK937 Markets/Uses: Plumbing / Fittings & Manifolds / Fittings & Manifolds; Plumbing / Manifolds / Underfloor Heating; Plumbing / Shower Valves & Taps / Faucet Components Applications: Connectors; Fittings; Piping; Plumbing Parts Features: Acid Resistant; Base Resistant; Chemical Resistant; Flame Retardant; Good Thermal Stability; Good Toughness; High ESCR (Stress Crack Resist.); High Heat Resistance; Hydrolytically Stable Injection notes: Minimum recommended drying conditions are 2.5 hours at 350°F (177°C), or 4 hours at 300°F (149°C).
