Xytron®

Hydrolysis resistance:

It is known that PPS and glass are both good at hydrolysis resistance. But the interface of glass and PPS is the weak point for a glass reinforced PPS compound during the hydrolysis process. Thanks to good bonding technology, Xytron^™ G4080HR outperforms competitors’ materials. The retention strength is still around 80% of its initial value after 3,000 hours of aging at 135°C (275°F).

Long-term heat aging performance:

Due to its highly stable chemical bonds, Xytron^™ G4010T shows extremely good heat aging performance. Even after aging at 230°C (446°F) for 6,000 hours, Xytron^™ G4010T still shows > 60% tensile strength retention.

High purity:

With Xytron^™ linear PPS, there is very limited leaching due to high purity levels. It can also be widely used in water management and hydrogen fuel cells.

Dimension stability:

Xytron^™ G4020DW-FC shows almost ZERO moisture absorption. Even if the specimen of G4020DW-FC is soaked in 85°C (185°F) water for 72 hours, the absorbed water is only 0.2%, which results in a dimension increase by approximately 0.03% in flow direction and 0.05% in transverse direction.

Creep resistance at an elevated temperature:

Xytron^™ shows very good creep performance even at elevated temperatures.

Thermal conductivity:

By using different types of additives, good electrical properties and dimension stability, plus long-term high temperature resistance and hydrolysis resistance performance, can be combined in thermal conductive materials.
