As the energy industry moves to more sustainable heating options, manufacturers are seeking solar radiation. solar collector has sustainability advantages and is designed with optimized thermal, physical and mechanical properties for longer periods of time under harsh conditions. Solvay’s specialty polymers enable manufacturers to create solar thermal systems with excellent chemical resistance, hydrolysis resistance and extreme temperature resistance to withstand the harshest environments.
high performance polymer
Radel® PPSU has stronger dynamic advantages than metals, such as strong heat and moisture resistance, providing unique advantages for the design of solar heat collectors, providing excellent impact strength and hydrolytic stability. In addition, ryton® PPS is ideal for replacing metals in solar water tanks because of its heat-resistant water, lightweighting capabilities and excellent dimensional stability in long-term use. Precision molded parts also benefit from the excellent modulus and creep resistance of ryton® PPS.
Radel® PPSU has durable performance in Health care , Pipe , Food service , Aircraft and Wire insulation , , and Wire insulation 1 applications. Medical-grade Radel® PPSU resin has a long history of providing a robust, lightweight metal alternative in sterilable device trays, implant tests and surgical instrument handles. The material is bioinert and does not contain BPA, making it suitable for food service applications. In pipes, Radel® PPSU and Acudel® modified PPSU often replace brass in pressurized hot water accessories and valves, eliminating corrosion and contamination of heavy metals while extending service life.
Ryton® polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) is a semi-crystalline, high temperature resistant polymer that provides excellent dimensional stability for precision molded parts that need to withstand long-term high temperature use. It has inherent flame retardancy and has chemical resistance comparable to PEEK and fluoropolymers.

Ryton® PPS thermal stability, dimensional stability, chemical resistance and inherent flame retardancy.
Ryton® PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) compound has a unique cost-effectiveness that other engineered thermoplastics cannot match:
Thermal Stability: It can withstand temperatures up to 200°C (392°F) in the long term and 260°C (500°F) in the short term
Dimensional Stability: Even the molding of complex-shaped parts can achieve very strict tolerances and maintain dimensional stability even in high temperatures and harsh chemical environments.
Chemical resistance: It can withstand various solvents and corrosive chemicals even at high temperatures.
’s inherent flame retardancy: All Ryton® PPS compounds can achieve UL94 V-0 flame retardancy grade without adding flame retardant.
polyparabenylsulfide (PPS) is a polymer formed by sulfur atoms and phenylene rings in para-substitution mode. Its molecular structure contains highly stable chemical bond , which makes it highly molecular stability for thermal degradation and chemical reactions. At the same time, the molecular structure of this polymer is also easy to form a crystal lattice with thermal stability. Therefore, PPS is a semi-crystalline polymer with a crystallization melting point of up to 285°C (545°F). Due to its molecular structure, PPS often forms carbon residue during combustion, giving the material its innate flame retardant properties.No PPS has been found to be dissolved in any solvent at temperatures below about 200°C (392°F).
