BASF Ultrason® P 3010 is the equivalent PPSU grade, delivering the same non-break notched impact toughness and resistance to over 1,000 repeated steam sterilization cycles. Octud supplies it from Korean stock.
Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU)
PPSU Supply & Distributor in Korea | BASF Ultrason® P 3010 (Polyphenylsulfone)
Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU) is the transparent sulfone with the family's highest notched impact (70 kJ/m², ISO 179) — no break under notched impact — and resistance to more than 1,000 repeated steam sterilization cycles, the standard material for medical devices, baby bottles and aircraft interiors. Made without BPA or BPS, it answers EU food-contact regulation. Octud supplies BASF Ultrason® P 3010 from Korean stock, with cross-reference data against Syensqo Radel®.

PPSU vs PA baby bottles: heat, impact, sterilisation and safety margin on the datasheets
PPSU is the super-engineering plastic used in hospital instruments steam-sterilised thousands of times at 134°C and in aircraft cabin interiors. We set its datasheet against the transparent PA also used in baby bottles, on identical test methods, and explain in plain terms what the 'margin' left above boiling water is and why it matters.
