PPSU products

PPSU is a type of amorphous, high-performance thermoplastic. Compared to PEI and PEI, PPSU exhibits superior impact strength and chemical resistance. High-pressure steam sterilization tests have proven that PPSU has superior hydrolysis resistance to other amorphous plastics. In fact, PPSU can withstand millions of high-pressure steam sterilizations, making it a very good choice for medical applications.


What is PPSU?

Through high-pressure steam sterilization testing, PPSU has been proven to have superior hydrolysis resistance to other amorphous plastics. In fact, PPSU can withstand millions of high-pressure steam sterilizations, making it a very good choice for medical applications.

The main advantages of PPSU

◆ High temperature resistance
◆ High hardness
◆ Good chemical compatibility
◆ Good impact resistance
◆ Good dimensional stability
◆ Good electrical insulation
◆ Good hydrolysis resistance
◆ Excellent resistance to high-energy radiation (γ-ray and X-ray)
◆ Good dielectric properties
