Ceramer and Ceramerplus are high performance polymers and additives based on polyphenylene sulfone (PPSO2).
Ceramer and Ceramerplus have excellent thermal stability, inherent flame resistance and universal chemical resistance.
Ceramer and Ceramerplus are processed through hot pressing and sinter technology or used as additive in fluoro polymers and in other high performance thermoplastic polymers.
The glass transition temperature (Tg) of Ceramer is around 360 ºC. The degree of crystallization for Ceramer as supplied is about 60%.
The spherical particle shape with a rough, cracked surface, enables the material to form an intimate mechanical bonds with matrix polymers such as fluoro polymers.
The density of Ceramer is 1.44 g/cm3, of Ceramerplus 1.54 g/cm3. The low density of the Ceramer and Ceramerplus enables in compounds a high volume load with little weight gain.
The specific surface area of the standard grade Ceramer 20 is about 10 m2/g according to BET measurements.
