Syensqo has introduced Ryton PPS XE-5000NA, the first grade of an innovative extrudable polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) technology.

This innovative technology aims to revolutionise the performance and sustainability of piping materials by exceeding the chemical, thermal, and pressure resistance of conventional polyethylene or polyamide resins without compromising processability or efficiency.

The advanced Ryton PPS XE-5000 technology delivers high-performance extrudable thermoplastic compounds with superior permeation resistance, revolutionising the energy industry's approach for piping solutions.

It provides a safe and proven solution for pipes operating in high-temperature and high-pressure environments, making it an economical and efficient choice for both traditional and emerging energy applications.

The new PPS XE grade expands the legacy of Ryton into higher performance non-metallic piping solutions, meeting customer demands in key markets, including oil and gas and the next generation of energy applications.
