PPS is available in a variety of grades that are appropriate for fluidized-bed coating, slurry coating, electrostatic spraying and injection, and compression molding. PPS is of two types, recycled PPS and virgin PPS. Recycled PPS has a lower price than virgin PPS. Recycled PPS has inferior properties and higher impurities than virgin PPS. Though recycled PPS offers advantages such as cost savings to end-use industries, it is subject to environmental regulations. Thus, there is growing demand for virgin PPS in various end-use industries including automotive, electrical and electronics, filter bag and others. These industries prefer virgin PPS to recycled PPS as using the former involves lower environmental risks.
