UDEL polysulfone is an amber semi-transparent, heat-resistant,
high performance engineering thermoplastic. It offers excellent
mechanical, electrical and improved chemical resistance properties
relative to polycarbonate. Polysulfone's properties remain relatively
consistent over a broad temperature range from -150°F (-100°C)
to 300°F (100°C).
UDEL polysulfone is hydrolysis resistant for continuous use in
hot water and steam at temperatures up to 300°F. Its flame
resistance is UL 94-V-0 at 1/4" thickness (6.35mm) and UL 94-V-2
at 1/8" thickness (3.175mm). UDEL polysulfone offers high chemical
resistance to acidic and salt solutions, and good resistance to
detergents, hot water and steam. In addition, polysulfone has
excellent radiation stability, and offers low ionic impurity levels.
UDEL polysulfone often replaces polycarbonate when higher temperatures,
improved chemical resistance or autoclavability is required. It
is commonly used for analytical instrumentation, medical devices
and semiconductor process equipment components.
Food-grade UDEL polysulfone and custom colors can be special ordered.
Only food-grade is FDA, NSF, 3A-Dairy and USP Class VI compliant.
