What is PES Plastic - BASF 3010 MR UN

In the field of high-reliability engineering manufacturing, the balance between performance and process has always been the core challenge in material selection. As a high-viscosity polyethersulfone material specially designed for extreme conditions, PESU 3010 MR UN is redefining "non-reinforced high-performance plastics". This flame-retardant pes plastic launched by BASF not only features excellent thermal stability and mechanical strength, but also is compatible with multiple processing techniques, bringing more flexible material solutions to industries such as medical care, rail transit, and electronic and electrical.

01 | Redefine the performance boundaries of "non-enhanced"

The structural design of PESU 3010 MR UN eliminates the traditional glass fiber reinforced path, yet still possesses excellent mechanical toughness, dimensional stability and chemical resistance. The main features include:

  ・High viscosity + non-reinforcing: It still maintains excellent impact strength (8 kJ/m²) without fillers, and the internal structure of the material is highly uniform.

  ・Outstanding thermal stability: The heat distortion temperature can reach up to 207°C, and the glass transition temperature is 228°C, capable of withstanding high-temperature and repeated stress environments.

  ・Strong resistance to chemical corrosion: Suitable for industrial scenarios involving contact with cleaning agents, solvents, alcohols and strong alkalis, etc.

  ・Flame retardant grade V-0: It meets the flame retardant requirements without adding halogen and complies with RoHS and REACH regulatory standards.

  ・Multi-process compatibility: Supports injection molding, extrusion, and blow molding processes, meeting a wide range of manufacturing requirements from precision structures to hollow shells.

This series of attributes enables it to form a unique competitiveness in the field of non-reinforcing materials and is a representative of the new generation of high-end pes materials.
