Material Sheet Introduction of PPS (Polyphenylensulfid)

Polyphenylensulfid, abbreviated as PPS, is a high-performance engineering plastic with the following key characteristics:

Basic Information

- English Name: Polyphenylensulfid

- Abbreviation: PPS

Physical Properties

- Density: 1.34

- Operating Temperature Range: -40℃ - 180℃

- Melting Point: 235℃

- Brittleness Temperature: 85 - 95℃

- Heat Deflection Temperature: 285℃

- Water Absorption: 0.02

Chemical Resistance

- Acid Resistance: Resistant to weak acids, partially resistant to strong acids, and not resistant to oxidizing acids

- Alkali Resistance: Resistant to weak and strong alkalis

- Solvent Resistance: Resistant to alcohol and saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons, partially resistant to aromatic hydrocarbons, fats and oils

Flame Retardancy and Combustion Characteristics

PPS is flame retardant. The self-extinguishing flame burns brightly and smells of rotten eggs

Other Properties

- Weather Resistance: Not resistant to UV and weathering, cannot be supplied colored. Additives are used to increase flexibility and prevent brittleness

- Mechanical Properties: Rockwell Hardness ＞ 40
