HONYPLAS®PPS sheet - Hony Plastic

HONYPLAS®PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) is a high-performance thermoplastic with exceptional strength, dimensional stability, chemical resistance, and electrical insulation at high operating temperatures. Acme Plastics offers various PPS products to fit all of your needs.PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) is a high-performance thermoplastic with an unusual set of properties. PPS offers exceptional strength, dimensional stability, chemical resistance, and electrical insulation at high operating temperatures. This makes PPS ideal for automotive parts handling high-temperature fluids, computer hard drive components, heating and cooling elements in consumer electronics as well as medical equipment components. PPS plastic is identified by its opaque white to tan color as well as the metallic sound it makes when struck.

PPS was developed and commercialized by Phillips Petroleum under the Rytonâ brand in 1972 and was considered the original high-performance engineering thermoplastic. Solvay’s acquisition of the PPS business from Chevron Phillips expanded the company’s portfolio of polymers with a broad family of Ryton® PPS grades that included formulations with glass and carbon fiber reinforcement and other performance-enhancing additives. The most common of the Ryton grades is 40% glass fiber reinforced Ryton R-4 PPS.

The variety of PPS grades available globally has expanded significantly since the polymer’s development and commercialization. Resin formulations have been developed with melt processing characteristics tailored for processing by injection molding, blow molding, powder coating and extrusion. PPS product modifications that afford performance enhancements beyond the properties of the unfilled PPS polymer include the addition of glass and mineral reinforcements for higher strength, and wear-resistant additives.

HONYPLAS®PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) thermoplastic belongs to the group of high temperature plastics and combines good long and short term thermal stability. It is also an excellent choice when it comes to a wide range of chemical resistance in harsh environments. Other remarkable PPS material properties are:

High purity
High crystallinity
Good electrical insulation
High mechanical strength
Creep resistance
Dimensional stability over wide variations of temperature and moisture levels.

PPS plastic is a special engineering plastic with excellent comprehensive performance. It has excellent high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, flame retardant V0, balanced physical and mechanical properties, excellent dimensional stability and excellent electrical properties. It is used in electronic appliances, It is widely used in machinery industry, auto parts, aerospace and other fields.

Auto parts

Auto parts are the most widely used fields of PPS, mainly used in automotive igniters, sensors, connectors, thermostats, vaporizers, vaporization pumps, IGBT modules, IC regulators, temperature regulators, gearboxes, water valves, water tanks Water chambers, heater brackets, bearing brackets, seat bases, oil pan screws, lamp covers, bumpers, automotive alternator coil skeletons and brackets, exhaust systems, and parts for reflectors and lamp holders. It can replace metal to make exhaust cylinder circulation valve and water pump impeller, pneumatic signal conditioner, etc.

Electronic and electrical components

PPS materials can account for about 30% of electronic appliances, mainly used for microelectronic component packaging, connectors, wire connectors, IC sockets, coil skeletons, brush brackets, motor shells, electromagnetic adjustment discs, TV tuner shafts, Relays, trimmer capacitors, capacitor casings, rotor insulation parts, fuse holders, tape recorders, magnetic therapy devices and other components.

Household appliances: electric fans, hot air cylinders, hair straighteners, hair curlers, hair irons, air fryers, microwave oven brackets, air conditioner compressors, coffee machine accessories, clothes dryers, electric irons, copiers, printers, electric kettle accessories, rice cookers and other parts.

Also used in precision instruments: notebook computer casings, timers, tachometers, copiers, cameras, temperature sensors, and housings and parts of various measuring instruments

Tableware field: used to make chopsticks, spoons, dishes and other tableware.

Mechanical and chemical industry: used as bearings, pumps, valves, pistons, precision gears, acid and alkali resistant valve pipes, pipe fittings, valves, gaskets and corrosion-resistant parts such as submersible pumps or impellers.
