PPS - Polyphenylene sulfide

Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) is suitable for high performance structural components requiring thermal stability, structural integrity, high dimensional stability and exceptional resistance to a broad range of acids, alkalis, ketones and hydrocarbons. PPS is inert to steam, compatible with common sterilization methods, and can be machined to tight tolerances. It is inherently flame retardant with a high limiting oxygen index (LOI) and very low water absorption.

Key Features:

  • Excellent strength and rigidity up to 425°F continuous use with minimum decline in mechanical properties

  • Outstanding anti-fatigue and anti-creep properties

  • Superior chemical resistance

  • Excellent resistance to radiation, and inert to steam

  • Virtually no moisture absorption

  • Low coefficient of thermal expansion, high dimensional stability

  • Outstanding electrical properties at high frequencies, high temps and high humidity

  • Inherently flame retardant (UL 94 V-0 rated)

Grades:

  • PPS Impact Modified Unfilled (Black)

  • Bearing Grade PPS (Black)

  • 40% Glass Filled PPS (Natural and Black)
