Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) Radel® R-5900 Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU) (discontinued **)
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU)
Material Notes:	Radel® R-5900 polyphenylsulfone (PPSU) offers medium melt viscosities for long flow lengths and greater injection molding ease. It also provides exceptional hydrolytic stability and toughness that is superior to that of other commercially available, high-temperature engineering resins. It offers high deflection temperature and outstanding resistance to environmental stress cracking. The resin is inherently flame retardant and has excellent thermal stability and good electrical properties. Features: Acid Resistant; Base Resistant; Flame Retardant; Good Chemical Resistance; Good Flow; Good Thermal Stability; High ESCR (Stress Crack Resist.); High Heat Resistance; Hydrolytically Stable; Steam Sterilizable; Ultra High Toughness Uses: Appliances; Consumer Applications; Food Service Applications Information provided by Solvay Specialty Polymers.
