BASF’s Ultrason? grades are high-temperature resistant, amorphous thermoplastics derived from polysulfone (PSU), polyethersulfone (PESU) and polyphenylsulfone (PPSU). Their wide spectrum of properties allows them to be molded into high-quality engineering parts and highly stressed mass-produced articles.
So Ultrason? is suitable for many applications in automotive construction, in the food and household sectors, but also for membranes used for water filtration as well as electric and electronic components.
The extraordinary property profile of Ultrason?:
high stiffness
high mechanical strength
low dependence of the properties on the temperature
very high long-term service temperature
favorable dielectric properties
very favorable behavior in case of exposure to fire
excellent hydrolysis resistance
good dimensional stability
good electrical insulating capacity
