Veradel® 3200 polyethersulfone (PESU) is a low melt flow, transparent grade that offers high heat deflection temperatures, excellent toughness and dimensional stability, and resistance to steam, boiling water and mineral acids. Other desirable properties include thermal stability, creep resistance and inherent flame resistance. Veradel® 3200 is FDA compliant and is therefore approved for direct food contact. Three other grades are available: Veradel® 3300, a medium melt flow grade suggested for general purpose injection molding; Veradel® 3400, a high melt flow grade designed for easy molding of parts with thin walls or long flow lengths; and Veradel® 3600, a very high melt flow grade suggested for compounding, especially of glass or carbon fiber reinforced compounds. This grade was formerly marketed as Gafone™ PESU Acid Resistant; Chemical Resistant; Creep Resistant; Flame Retardant; Food Contact Acceptable; General Purpose; Good Adhesion; Good Dimensional Stability; Good Thermal Stability; Good Toughness; High Heat Resistance; High Tensile Strength; Hydrolysis Resistant; Medium Flow; Medium Molecular Weight; Medium Rigidity Uses: Adhesives; Coating Applications; Compounding; Film Processing: Compounding; Extrusion; Injection Molding Agency Ratings: FDA Food Contact, Unspecified Rating; NSF STD-51 Availability: Africa & Middle East; Asia Pacific; Europe; Latin America; North America Information provided by Solvay Specialty Polymers. |
