Transparent, general purpose for injection molding Udel® P-1700 polysulfone (PSU) is a tough, rigid, high-strength thermoplastics suitable for continuous use up to 300°F (149°C). It is resistant to oxidation and hydrolysis and withstand prolonged exposure to high temperatures and repeated sterilization. Udel® P-1700 polysulfone is highly resistant to mineral acids, alkali and salt solutions. Resistance to detergents and hydrocarbon oils is good, but the resin may be attacked by polar solvents such as ketones, chlorinated hydrocarbons and aromatic hydrocarbons. These resins are also highly resistant to degradation by gamma or electron beam radiation. Electrical properties of Udel® P-1700 polysulfones are stable over a wide temperature range and after immersion in water or exposure to high humidity. The resins comply with FDA 21 CFR 177.1655 and may be used in articles intended for repeated use in contact with foods. Additionally, they are approved by the NSF, by the Department of Agriculture for contact with meat and poultry and by the 3-A Sanitary Standards of the Dairy Association. - Transparent: Udel® P-1700 CL 2611 CMP - Transparent: Udel® P-1700 NT 06 - Transparent: Udel® P-1700 NT 11 - Opaque Black : Udel® P-1700 BK 937 - Opaque White: Udel® P-1700 WH 6417 - Opaque White: Udel® P-1700 WH 7407 - Opaque Gray: Udel® P-1700 GY 8057 Applications: Appliance Components; Appliances; Automotive Electronics; Dental Applications; Electrical Parts; Electrical/Electronic Applications; Food Service Applications; Hospital Goods; Industrial Parts; Medical Devices; Medical/Healthcare Applications; Microwave Cookware; Piping; Plumbing Parts; Surgical Instruments; Valves/Valve Parts Features: Acid Resistant; Alcohol Resistant; Alkali Resistant; Autoclave Sterilizable; Biocompatible; Chemical Resistant; Detergent Resistant; E-beam Sterilizable; Ethylene Oxide Sterilizable; Food Contact Acceptable; Good Dimensional Stability; Good Sterilizability; Good Surface Finish; Good Toughness; Heat Sterilizable; High Heat Resistance; Hydrocarbon Resistant; Hydrolytically Stable; Radiation (Gamma) Resistant; Radiation Sterilizable; Radiotranslucent; Steam Resistant; Steam Sterilizable Information provided by Solvay Specialty Polymers. |
