RYTON®

Ryton®, also known as Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS), is a high-performance thermoplastic material renowned for its exceptional properties.

Advantages of the material

Here are some of its key benefits:

Heat resistance: Ryton offers exceptional heat resistance, withstanding high temperatures without warping.
Dimensional stability: The material maintains its dimensions even under high loads and extreme temperatures.
Chemical resistance: The material is chemically inert to many solvents, making it ideal for corrosive environments.
Low moisture absorption: It absorbs very little water, contributing to its dimensional stability and durability.
Flame-retardant: The material is inherently flame-retardant, making it a safe choice for many industrial applications.

Ryton is used in a variety of industrial sectors due to its unique properties. Here are just a few examples of applications:

Engine components: Thanks to its heat resistance and dimensional stability, Ryton is used to manufacture aircraft engine components.
Plasma torch insulators: Its chemical and thermal resistance makes it an ideal material for plasma torch insulators.

Valve seats: Ryton is used for valve seats because of its resistance to heat and wear.
Fuel system components: Its chemical resistance makes it suitable for aggressive fuel environments.

Medical devices: Ryton is used in the manufacture of medical devices requiring high chemical and thermal resistance.

Electronic components: Its dimensional stability and low moisture absorption make it the material of choice for precision electronic components.
