 RADEL PPSU LSG Coloured Rod
RADEL PPSU LSG black, natural, red, green, brown, rust, yellow, blue, grey [PPSU]
RADEL PPSU LSG stock shapes are produced from selected batches of a specific RADEL R polyphenylsulfone resin. This material offers a better impact strength and chemical resistance than ULTEM® PEI LSG and PSU LSG and it also has superior hydrolysis resistance as measured by steam autoclaving cycles to failure. The composition of the resin used for the production of the RADEL PPSU LSG stock shapes complies with the regulations that apply in the Member States of the European Union (Directive 2002/72/EC, as amended) and in the United States of America (FDA) for plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs. RADEL PPSU LSG stock shapes have also been successfully type tested for their compliance with both United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and ISO 10993-1 guideline requirements for Biocompatibility Testing of Materials, and they come with full traceability from resin to stock shape. These features, added to an excellent sterilizability by means of steam, dry heat, ethylene oxide, plasma and gamma irradiation, make RADEL PPSU LSG stock shapes very suitable for applications in the medical, pharmaceutical and biotechnology markets.
Main Characteristics:
- High maximum allowable service temperature in air (180°C continuously)
- Good chemical and excellent hydrolysis resistance (suitable for repeated steam sterilization)
- High stiffness over a wide temperature range
- Very high impact strength
- Physiologically inert (suitable for food contact)
- High dimensional stability
- Very good resistance against high energy radiation (gamma- and X-rays)
- Good electrical insulating and dielectric properties
