Our materials
Polyphenylene sulphide (PPS)
Polyphenylene sulphide (PPS) is an aromatic high temperature semi-crystalline plastic with a glass transition temperature of 85-90 C and a crystalline melting point of 280-290 C. PPS has good creep properties, chemical resistance to a variety of organic and non organic solutions. And it is also flameproof without any additives. The use of PPS in it’s natural form is limited due to the poor mechanical properties. Interference with fiber glass improves mechanical properties dramatically. Most applications are with reinforces glass fiber PPS.
