Alloy With Polystyrene, Impact Modified PPO is a subcategory of Polyphenylene Oxide. The additative is added during the manufacturing process. Its elastic modulus ranges from 345 to 360 MPa. Its flexural modulus ranges from 325 to 345 MPa. Its tensile strength ranges from 7000 to 8000 MPa at break. Its flexural strength ranges from 8200 to 11000 MPa. Its specific gravity ranges from 1.27 to 1.36. Its molding pressure ranges from 10 to 15 MPa.

Polyphenylene Oxide, also known as PPO, is a thermoplastic polycondensate. The most common trade name is Ashley. Although it resists many chemicals, it is easily attacked by some hydrocarbons. It has excellent dimensional stability, low moisture absorption, and high mechanical and dielectric strength. PPO is processable by conventional extrusion and injection molding equipment.
