2024-08-08 13:24:35 PPE+PS materials

This material has excellent electrical insulation and water resistance, good dimensional stability, and thermal deformation 

temperature between 90 and 175℃. PPE+PS composites have a wide range of applications in electronics, the automotive 

industry, chemicals and medical devices, such as lithium-ion battery packaging materials, automotive dashboards and ‌ bars,

 corrosion resistant equipment manufacturing, and replacing stainless steel and other metals in medical devices. In addition, 

PPE+PS also has good geometric stability, chemical stability and low thermal expansion coefficient, making it suitable for the 

manufacture of office equipment, home appliances, computers and other boxes, chassis and precision components.


PPE+PS composites have the following advantages: ‌

Good geometric stability: ‌PPE+PS composite material has good geometric stability, ‌ means that it can maintain its shape 

and size stability under various environmental conditions, ‌ is not easy to deformation or size change. ‌

Chemical stability: ‌ this material has good chemical stability, ‌ can resist the erosion of a variety of chemical substances, ‌ to 

maintain the performance and appearance of the material. ‌

Electrical insulation: ‌PPE+PS composite material has excellent electrical insulation properties, ‌ is suitable for applications 

requiring good insulation performance. ‌

Low coefficient of thermal expansion: ‌ The low coefficient of thermal expansion of this material helps to maintain dimensional 

stability, ‌ reduces dimensional changes due to temperature changes, ‌ thus maintaining product performance and appearance. ‌

High heat resistance: ‌PPE+PS composite material has high heat resistance, ‌ can maintain good performance and stability under 

high temperature environment23. ‌

Excellent dimensional stability and processability: ‌ this material is easy to process, ‌ has good dimensional stability, ‌ suitable for

 mass production and precision parts production 2. ‌

Low specific gravity and low molding shrinkage: ‌PPE+PS composite material has low specific gravity, ‌ low molding shrinkage, ‌ 

suitable for the production of lightweight and precision parts 24. ‌


However, ‌PPE+PS composites also have some disadvantages: ‌

Higher cost: ‌ due to the high performance properties of this material, ‌ its production cost is relatively high, ‌ may lead to an 

increase in product price. ‌

May not be suitable for all applications: ‌ while suitable for many applications, ‌ may not be suitable for all specific environments 

or application conditions, ‌ needs to be selected based on the specific use environment. ‌

To sum up, ‌PPE+PS composite has been widely used in many fields for its high performance properties, ‌, but its cost and 

applicability should be considered when used. ‌
