Udel® (PSU) POLYSYLFONE

B.I.R.S. Machine & Supply distributor of Polysulfone sheet & rod.

Udel® PSU (polysulfone) is a rigid, high-strength, semi-tough, transparent plastic that offers higher heat resistance and better hydrolytic stability than polycarbonate. It retains its good mechanical properties when exposed to steam and other sterilization techniques.

Udel® PSU excels in many fluid-handling applications and has successfully replaced brass in pressurized hot water applications for over 20 years. It exhibits low creep under a sustained load at elevated temperatures and can withstand continuous exposure to hot chlorinated water. Udel® polysulfone is FDA, NSF, 3A-Dairy and USP Class VI compliant.
