Polyphenylene Oxide
PPO, Polyphentlene Oxide is a tough, stiff material with high glasstransition temperature and high melt point giving a high heat resistance. The material also has outstanding electrical properties and resistance to acids and bases. At high temperatures PPO maintains its good load bearing characteristics and dimensional stability. The material also has excellent dielectric properties and may be rated as self-extinguishing and non-dripping. It is mainly used as blend with polystyrene, high impact styrene-butadiene copolymer or polyamide. Polyphenylene Oxide also known as PPO or PPE. While modified polyphenylene oxide also known as MPPO or MPPE.
