Discover SPS for heat and chemical resistant lightweight automotive parts

Supplied by Idemitsu Kosan

Idemitsu Kosan synthesized XAREC™ SPS in the year 1985. SPS is a Syndiotactic Polystyrene engineering thermoplastic, and its crystalline structure, high melting point, and property combination make it incredibly well-suited for automotive applications.


 

SPS features:

  • Resistance to hydrolysis
  • Chemical resistance
  • Low specific gravity
  • Heat resistance
  • Electrical properties
  • Dimensional stability
  • Processability
