PPS GF40 NAT

Polyphenylene sulphide

40% glass-fibre reinforced, natural colour

PPS is a semi-crystalline high-performance plastic usable continuously above 200 °C with no known solvent below 200 °C. Because the neat resin is brittle it is almost always used as a glass-fibre or mineral-reinforced compound. It is inherently flame retardant (UL94 V-0) and dimensionally excellent.

Overview

PPS GF40 NAT is the 40% glass-fibre reinforced, natural colour grade of the PPS family in the compounds group. It is used in applications such as pump housings, impellers and valve parts, engine-bay sensors and connectors, heater and boiler components. The grade with the right flow for injection, extrusion or another process is specified in the quotation together with your quantity and colour; TDS and SDS are sent with the quotation.
