PPSU

PPSU (Polyphenylsulfone) is a strong, high-performance thermoplastic with excellent chemical resistance, dimensional stability, and sterilization durability. Ideal for aerospace, medical, and fluid-handling applications, it combines impact strength and flame retardance with easier processing than many semi-crystalline polymers.
