Since 1990 BASF has produced and sold the high temp polymers polysulfone and polyethersulfone
under the trade names Ultrason S (PSU) and Ultrason E (PES). Both are
transparent, high temperature, high-performance thermoplastics. The
applications for these high temp polymers span the
electronics, automotive, and consumer goods
industries. Broad chemical resistance, hydrolysis resistance, constant
use temperature of 180 °C (PES) and 160 °C (PSU) and high mechanical
strength are the key properties which characterize Ultrason as both outstanding
and versatile.
The high temp polymers Ultrason S and Ultrason E are often used where the performance required
exceeds the capabilities of polyamide, polycarbonate, polyoxymethylene
and polyalkylene terephthalate. The exceptional property spectrum of these
materials even allows them to replace thermosets, metals and ceramics.
