PSU Polysulphone

Polysulphone (PSU) is a high-performance polymer with superior mechanical, electrical and thermal properties in a temperature region from -100 up to 180 °C. It is mainly used in exacting mechanical and electrical applications. 

Polysulphones The polysulphone family of polysulphone (PSU) and polyether sulphone (PES) is a TP based on sulphone derivatives, aiming at high heat-stability. PSU originated in the discovery of a method of producing high molecular weight aromatic polyethers. 

Examples of resins used include the nylon family (polyamide/PA), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene, and polyethylene. There continues to be growing applications for the higher-performance RTFs, such as polyphenylene sulphide (PPS) and polysulphone (PSU). Use is made of many other TPs (Chapter 3).
