Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS)
Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) is an organic polymer consisting of aromatic rings linked with sulfides. Synthetic fiber and textiles derived from this polymer are known to resist chemical and thermal attack. PPS is used to make filter fabric for coalboilers, papermakingfelts, electrical insulation, specialty membranes, gaskets and packings. PPS is the precursor to a conducting polymer of the semi-flexible rod polymer family. The PPS, which is otherwise insulating, can be converted to the semiconducting form by oxidation or use of dopants.
Polyphenylene sulfide is an engineering plastic, commonly used today as a high performance thermoplastic. PPS can be molded, extruded, or machined to high tolerances. In its pure solid form, it may be opaque white to light tan in color. Maximum service temperature is 218°C (424°F). PPS has not been found to dissolve in any solvent at temperatures below ±200 °C (392°F). An easy way to identify the compound is by the metallic sound it makes when struck.
PPS is one of the most important high temperature thermoplastic polymers because it exhibits a number of desirable properties. These properties include resistance to heat, acids and alkalies, and to mildew, to bleaches, aging, sunlight, and abrasion. It absorbs only small amounts of solvents and resists dyeing.
