Techtron® PPS

Techtron® PPS by Quadrant is a semi-crystalline, unfilled, inherently flame retardant, natural colored polyphenylene sulfide [PPS]. Exhibits high mechanical strength, stiffness & creep resistance at elevated temperatures, very good dimensional stability (minimal moisture absorption and a low coefficient of linear thermal expansion), excellent chemical – as well as hydrolysis- resistance. Has excellent resistance to high energy radiation [gamma- & X-rays], easy machinability to close tolerances, good UV-resistance, inherent low flammability, good electrical insulating and dielectric properties. Offers very high maximum allowable service temperature in air and inertness to steam, strong bases, fuels & acids. Is suitable for processing by extrusion. Techtron® PPS is used in structural applications in corrosive environments such as HPLC, chip nests and CMP retaining rings. Complies with FDA and European Union [Directive 2002/72/EC].
