TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW
Basic Knowledge of PPSU
What is PPSU?
Polyphenylsulfone (PPSF or PPSU) is a high-performance polymer consisting of aromatic rings connected by sulfone (SO2) groups. PPSU is a strong and versatile polymer that can withstand high impact, outperforming even high-performance polyetherimide (PEI).
It has a Heat Deflection Temperature of up to 196 ℃ and a transparent, amber-like appearance that allows for easy coloration, enhancing its design flexibility. PPSU's amorphous nature and lack of a melting point make it adaptable to various manufacturing processes. It can endure rigorous sterilization, withstanding over 1000 steam cycles at 134℃.
Additionally, its resistance to hydrolysis, hot water, and steam expands its usefulness in different industrial settings. Compared to thermoplastics like polypropylene (PP) and polyethersulfone (PES), PPSU stands out for its superior durability and heat tolerance. It is non-absorbent, preventing odors or colors from affecting it and contributing to its hygienic profile.

FAQ
Machining PPSU Buying FAQs
Yes, PPSU is BPA-free. It is a high-performance engineering thermoplastic that does not contain Bisphenol A (BPA).
No, PPSU is not biodegradable. It is a highly durable and stable thermoplastic that does not break down easily in natural environments. Proper disposal methods, such as recycling, should be followed to minimize environmental impact.
Yes, PPSU is considered safe for baby products. It is often used in the manufacturing of baby bottles, pacifiers, and other feeding items due to its high heat resistance, durability, and resistance to chemicals. It is also free from harmful substances such as BPA.
Yes, PPSU is generally safe for UV sterilization. It has excellent chemical resistance and can withstand sterilization methods, including UV sterilization, without compromising its mechanical or chemical properties.
PPSU is inherently flame-resistant and has a high resistance to combustion. While it is not completely non-flammable, it has a high ignition temperature and meets various flammability standards. It is considered a safe material in terms of fire resistance.
