POLYSULFONE (PES)
B.I.R.S. Machine & Supply distributes Polysulfone (PES) sheet & rod.
Polysulfone is amber in color, semi-transparent plastic material. Polysulfone is an amorphous high performance thermoplastic offering excellent mechanical, electrical, and improved chemical resistance relative to polycarbonate. Polysulfone's properties remain relatively consistent over a broad temperature range of -150°F (-100°C) to +300°F (+149°C).
Polysulfone is resistant to degradation from hot water and steam and it is often used in medical such as; analytical instrumentation, surgical and medical devices, and semiconductor process equipment components and food preparation applications where repeated sterilization is required. Polysulfone can be used as an alternative to polycarbonate or acrylic for applications requiring high temperature performance or exposure to hot water and steam. Polysulfone is resistant to detergents and hydrocarbon oils. NSF, FDA, USDA, 3A Dairy & USP Class VI Approved and it complies with the National Sanitation Foundation's potable water standard up to 180 degrees F. Polysulfone Udel® is a trade name for Solvay Plastics PES resin.
