PPS
(Polyphenylene Sulfide)
PPS is a high temperature semi-crystalline material. It has good mechanical properties and excellent chemical resistance at elevated temperatures.
PPS has been compounded extensively and many different types of properties are available. PTFE filled PPS is one of the best bearing materials available. Unfilled grades of PPS have poor properties, so components are usually made from glass filled or glass/mineral filled grades.
PPS is very sensitive to molding conditions and must be processed properly to achieve its maximum potential.
