Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) Radel® R-5500 Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU), Transparent
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU)
Material Notes:	Transparent, low flow for extrusion Radel® R-5500 is a general purpose extrusion grade of polyphenylsulfone (PPSU), offering exceptional hydrolytic stability and better toughness than most commercially available high-temperature polymers. This resin has a high heat deflection temperature, excellent thermal stability, outstanding resistance to environmental stress cracking, good electrical properties and inherent flame retardant properties. Transparent and opaque colors are available.
