Ultrafuse® PPSU was specially developed for FFF printing based on BASF´s advanced Ultrason® materials. The Ultrason®
resins are amorphous thermoplastics derived from polyethersulfone (PESU), polysulfone (PSU) and polyphenylsulfone
(PPSU) and ensure very high thermal resistance. With its wide spectrum of material performance advantages, Ultrafuse®
PPSU can be successfully used in applications where other plastics, e.g. polyamide, polycarbonate, polyoxymethylene and
polyalkylene terephthalates, fail to meet the performance specifications. With its inherent flame-retardant properties, it is
an especially suitable material for the aerospace industry.
