Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) Materials for Electrical/Electronic Part Applications

DIC’s industry-leading polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) portfolio is optimized for electronic applications and features outstanding heat and chemical resistance. Additionally, DIC’s PPS portfolio contains a wide variety of engineering compounds formulated with both glass fiber and/or mineral filler to meet a variety of desired characteristics for principal electronic components, general electronic components and home electronics.

PPS delivers elevated temperature performance, precision moldability, and dimensional stability to withstand the SMT process, along with the required UL94 V-0 flame resistance without incorporating flame retardant additives. Additionally, available elastomer modified grades offer outstanding heat shock resistance and enhanced impact properties.

These characteristics make DIC.PPS an ideal injection molding product for use in producing electrical and electronic parts such as connectors, electronic control modules and sensors.
