PPS
PPS - Polyphenylensulfide belongs to the semi-crystalline materials and offers a very high mechanical capacity, thermal and chemical resistance distinguished at the same time (usual operating temperature up to approx. +150 °C), high dimensional stability and creep strength.
By the reinforcement with glass fibres strength is achieved, which is comparable with light metal. PPS closes the gap between the technical synthetics and PEEK with its strength and economy.
Properties:
- very high strength and rigidity
- high hardness
- high thermostability
- high dimensional stability
- very high chemical resistance
- very good insulating properties
- high weather resistance
- high resistance to hydrolysis
Applications: Components in the machine-making, pump parts, fan parts, impellers, parts in the fuel and automotive sector.
