Revolutionizing Sustainable Piping with Extrudable PPS Technology

Syensqo, a global leader in advanced materials and chemical solutions, has unveiled Ryton® PPS XE-5000NA, the first grade of its innovative extrudable polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) technology. This breakthrough material is engineered to elevate the performance and sustainability of piping systems across various industries.

The demand for high-performance piping materials is increasing, especially in applications where traditional polyethylene or polyamide resins fall short in chemical, thermal, and pressure resistance. “Our new Ryton® PPS XE-5000 technology not only meets these stringent requirements but also offers exceptional permeation resistance, surpassing common piping materials,” explained William Sattich, principal scientist for PPS at Syensqo. “This innovation is set to transform the energy sector’s approach to piping solutions.”

Ryton® PPS XE-5000 is designed to perform in extreme conditions, providing a safe and reliable solution for high-temperature and high-pressure applications. Its superior chemical resistance and low permeability make it a cost-effective and efficient choice for both traditional oil & gas markets and emerging next-generation energy applications.

Mike O’Brien, global marketing manager for energy at Syensqo, emphasized the significance of this development: “The new PPS XE grade extends the Ryton® legacy into high-performance non-metallic piping, meeting the evolving demands of our customers in key industries.”

Thanks to its excellent extrusion properties, Ryton® PPS XE-5000NA is ideal for inner liners, stand-alone pipes, and composite piping systems. Now commercially available worldwide, this cutting-edge material sets a new benchmark for sustainable, high-performance piping solutions.
