GEHR Plastics PPSU Polyphenylenesulfone
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU)
Material Notes:	Polyphenylenesulfone is an amorphous material, with improved impact and hydrolysis resistance compared to PSU. The usual operating temperature is approximately 180°C. The extremely high notched impact strength remains also after a heat aging. Properties high strength and rigidity very high impact strength very good dimensional stability very high chemical resistance high resistance to all kinds of radiation repeated sterilization lower chemical resistance than comparable semi-crystalline materials Applications include parts for microwave ovens, blow dryers, parts for humidifiers, food industry, pump wheels, insulators, and medical industry.
Vendors:	Ensinger High Performance Plastics withstand severe environments, resist harsh chemicals, and perform well in extreme temperatures. They offer weight savings that have potential to drive lower cost systems. Click here to view all available suppliers for this material.
