Fortron®PPS
Inherently flame resistant. Free of halogenated flame retardants.

Fortron polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) is a semicrystalline thermoplastic with the linear structure providing relatively more toughness compared to branched PPS. Fortron PPS exhibits an excellent balance of properties; it is stiff, strong, hard and tough, and has outstanding chemical and oxidative resistance with a high continuous-use temperature for applications where exacting electrical properties are required.Fortron PPS flows well in molding to fill long, thin and complex shapes.

Technology benefits of Fortron PPS:

  • High end-use continuous temperature up to 240° C
  • Short-term temperature resistance (up to 270° C) for lead-free soldering
  • Broad chemical resistance without attack or degradation
  • Creep resistance, especially at elevated temperatures
  • Dimensional stability = low shrink, CTE, absorption
  • Thin-wall design/weld line integrity
  • Excellent electrical properties
  • Hardness, abrasion resistance
  • Exceptional thermal stability in processing
  • UL94 V-0 5VA and high limiting oxygen index (LOI) without additives
  • Lower mold deposit/corrosion
