Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) Radel® RG-5030 Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU)  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU)

Material Notes: Radel RG-5030 is a 30% glass-fiber reinforced polyphenylsulfone (PPSU). This high-performance thermoplastic compound offers outstanding hydrolytic stability, strong resistance to acids and bases and significantly improved environmental stress cracking resistance relative to unreinforced polyphenylsulfone. Compared to unreinforced polyphenylsulfone, this grade has increased strength, stiffness, and creep resistance. This resin is particularly well suited for applications where excellent durability after long-term heat, hot water, or steam exposure is required. In addition, Radel RG-5030 PPSU has good electrical properties and is inherently flame retardant. - Natural: Radel RG-5030 NT 20
