| Ryton® Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) resins used for coatings are finely divided powders having a modest molecular weight and high melt flow. The powders (neat or mixed with other components) may be applied using slurry or electrostatic spray methods, and then fused and cured (cross-linking and chain extension) at temperatures from 600°F (316°C) to 800°F (427°C) to form high temperature, non-stick, corrosion resistant coatings. For further information on Ryton® PPS Coatings, request Ryton® PPS TSM-275 High Temperature, Non-Stick, Corrosion Resistant Coatings of Ryton® Polyphenylene Sulfide. | |

(2) Some powders may be available only in limited quantities. Off-gas products produced during processing can be irritants to mucous membranes, therefore adequate ventilation is recommended. |
| (3) A number of manufacturers supply ready to use Ryton® PPS coating formulations for specific purposes. Those manufacturers provide their own application instructions, curing recommendations, and technical service. |
| The nominal properties reported herein are typical of the product but do not reflect normal testing variances and therefore should not be used for specification purposes. |
