PSU
PSU - Polysulfone shows great thermal stability (from 100 °C to +160 °C). PSU possesses a high mechanical strength, very good dielectric properties and hydrolysis resistance and a high radiation resistance (permeable for microwaves). PSU has a low notch impact strength.
Properties:
- high strength and rigidity
- high impact strength (also at low temperatures)
- very good dimensional stability
- high chemical resistance
- high resistance to all kinds of radiation
- self-extinguishing
- repeated sterilisation
- a mediocre resistance to stress crack
- not weather resistant
Applications: Parts of microwave ovens, blow-dryers, humidifiers, food-industry, pump wheels, insulators, medical industry.
Dimensions of semi-finished products: round rods fi 12mm - fi 100mm
