The company says this new powder solution enhances efficiency, safety and sustainability in highly demanding environments,

April 2, 2025 - Syensqo, a global provider of materials and chemical solutions, has introduced a new Ryton polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) coating grade. The company claims the new material is custom-engineered to resolve unmet needs in ease of application and achieves strong coat performance at lower builds. According to Syensqo, this coating grade offers an efficient coating process that allows for better deposition per pass. As a result, it reduces the time and resources required for coating, while maintaining high throughput of coated articles, the manufacturer says.

“With this innovative Ryton solution, we are responding to an industry trend that focuses on more easily applied high-performance coatings with a smaller health, safety and environmental (HSE) footprint,” explained Hong Chen, Principal Research Scientist at Syensqo. “Building on our proven PPS chemistry, it delivers high barrier properties, provides excellent resistance to corrosive chemicals, demonstrates good adhesion to metals, and can operate at temperatures up to 200°C.”, Chen says.

According to Syensqo, its Ryton PPS M2000 FP supports clients who seek a sustainable, low-volatile powder coating solution that combines high molecular weight with safe application, optimized coating build and minimal post-curing after film formation.

Boris Makhinson, Syensqo Americas Market Manager for Energy concluded: “The new Ryton grade extends our PPS chemistry to powder coatings for use in demanding environments, such as the oil and gas industry. It makes the coating job easier and safer for applicators and is commercially available worldwide.”

Ryton is a registered trademark of Syensqo.
