Solvay Advanced Polymers EpiSpire™ HTS-2420 High Temperature Sulfone Resin, 20% Glass Reinforced

Subcategory: Polysulfone; Thermoplastic; Polymer

Material Notes:
EpiSpire HTS-2420 is a 20% glass-fiber reinforced high-temperature, high-performance, amorphous, sulfone polymer. This resin represents a technological breakthrough as it defines a new benchmark in amorphous thermoplastics thermal performance capabilities available to today’s design engineers. With a glass transition temperature of 245°C and a heat deflection temperature of 240°C, EpiSpire HTS-2420 resin this resin extends the thermal capability range available to design engineers today in other commercially available sulfone polymers (polysulfone, polyethersulfone and polyphenylsulfone).

The resin is completely amorphous and fully thermoplastic allowing easy melt fabrication by means of operations such as injection molding and extrusion. Along with its high thermal performance capabilities, EpiSpire HTS-2420 resin also has a long list of high-performance attributes which include excellent hydrolytic stability, resistance to acids and bases, and inherent flame retardance.

EpiSpire HTS-2420 resin is easily amenable to fabrication by injection molding, and other thermoplastic fabrication techniques. By virtue of its very high temperature performance and the unique combination of other engineering attributes, EpiSpire HTS-2420 resin constitutes a good candidate for metal replacement as well as non-thermoplastic resin replacement in a wide range of engineering applications.

EpiSpire HTS-2420 resin is available in natural and black.
