Torelina™ Pps Resin

The document discusses heat distortion temperature, which is a measure of a material's heat resistance and strength at high temperatures. It tests the temperature at which a material deforms under a specific load by gradually heating it. The heat distortion temperature of TORAY's TORELINA reinforced PPS resin is over 260°C even under high loads, maintaining its strength at high temperatures. Unreinforced grades have a lower heat distortion temperature near their glass transition temperature.

Technical Information｜Thermal Properties｜Heat Distortion Temperature (Deflection


Temperature under Load, HDT)
The heat distortion temperature is one heat resistance index, and is an index of the strength
(elastic modulus) of a material at high temperature. The test method is a 3-point bending
method, similar to the flexural test. For the flexural modulus, the breaking load is determined at a
constant strain rate. In contrast, for the heat distortion temperature, the temperature at which a
specified amount of displacement is reached is determined by gradually heating (120℃/hr)in a
state in which a constant load (according to ISO 72, the low load is 0.45 MPa and the high load
is 1.80 MPa) is applied. (Fig. 6.4) If the cross-section of a molded product is rectangular, as in
the case of the ISO test piece, the method whereby pressure is applied to the long side (10 mm)
with an indenter is called the flatwise method, whereas the method whereby pressure is applied
to the short side (4 mm) is called the edgewise method. For the heat distortion temperature of
TORELINA, measurements obtained with the flatwise method are shown.

In general, the heat distortion temperature is a property correlated to the temperature


dependence of the flexural modulus. The reinforced PPS of TORELINA maintains its high
elastic modulus even in a high-temperature environment, and it has high heat resistance of
260℃ or greater even under high load conditions. (Table. 6.1) On the other hand, the
unreinforced PPS grades of TORELINA, A900 and A670T05, show a heat distortion
temperature near the glass transition temperature, at which increases in the elastic modulus
become large. For this reason, if unreinforced PPS is to be used for applications that require
strength at high temperatures, a technique for increasing the degree of crystallinity with
annealing treatment should be applied. (Fig. 6.5)
