Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) Radel® R-5000 Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU), Transparent
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU)
Material Notes: Transparent, general purpose for injection molding

Radel® R-5000 is a transparent polyphenylsulfone (PPSU) which offers exceptional hydrolytic stability, and toughness superior to other commercially-available, high-temperature engineering resins. This resin also offer high deflection temperatures and outstanding resistance to environmental stress cracking. Radel® polymers are inherently flame retardant, provide excellent thermal stability and possess good electrical properties.
