Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic

Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic is a semi-transparent, temperature and chemical resistant thermoplastic. The tensile impact strength of polysulfone and polysulphone plastic is comparable to Polycarbonate, and it also has excellent mechanical properties. Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic is ideal for parts continuously exposed to hot water and steam at temperatures to 300°F. It can also be used in the foodservice and medical industries. Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic has excellent radiation stability and is available in USP Class VI rated resins.

Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic supplier?

Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic offers heat resistance of 300 degrees F to 340 degrees F without additives. Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic ranks "outstanding" where long term service in hot water environments and/or repeated steam sterilization is needed. High rigidity and tensile impact coupled with excellent machinability further encourage the use of Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic in demanding applications.

Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic properties

It offers excellent mechanical, electrical and improved chemical resistance properties relative to polycarbonate. Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic properties remain relatively consistent over a broad temperature range, from -150°F (-100°C) to 300°F (100°C).

Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic is hydrolysis resistant for continuous use in hot water and steam at temperatures up to 300°F. Its flame resistance is UL 94-V-0 at 1/4" thickness (6.35mm) and UL-V-2 at 1/8 thickness (3.175mm).

Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic offers high chemical resistance to acidic and salt solutions, and good resistance to detergents, hot water and steam. In addition, Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic has excellent radiation stability and offers low ionic impurity levels. Polysulfone and polysulphone plastic often replaces polycarbonate when higher temperatures, improved chemical resistance or autoclavability is required. It is commonly used for analytical instrumentation, medical devices and semiconductor process equipment components.
