Material Notes:
RADEL® R is a Polyphenysulfone produced by Solvay Advanced Polymers. RADEL® R is in the same performance category as products like Polysulfone and ULTEM® (PEI). RADEL® R has increased performance versus Polysulfone and ULTEM® in terms of temperature, impact strength and chemical resistance. RADEL® R has exceptional resistance to repeated steam autoclaving without loss of dimensional stability or physical properties. RADEL® R comes in both opaque and transparent grades. The transparent grade is R-5500 and the opaque grade is R-5100.High tensile strengthExcellent heat resistanceVery high resistance to environmental stressGreat mechanical strengthHigh dielectric strength and stabilityLow dissapation factorVery good mechinability and finishingAvailable in opaque and transparent gradesRADEL® R series products are targeted at a number of industries and applications. The initial target market is the medical industry. RADEL® R is used in applications for surgical tools and instruments because of its resistance to autoclave sterilization damage. A second market for RADEL® R is electronics because of its temperature resistance and dielectric properties.Information Provided by Ensinger Industries, Inc.
