Introduction

Polyphenylene Oxide, also known as PPO, has been mass-produced since 1965.
  - It is a thermoplastic polycondensate.
- General properties: It is easily attacked by some hydrocarbons, although it resists many chemicals. Possesses excellent dimensional stability, low moisture absorption, and high mechanical and dielectric strength.
- Trade Name: Ashley.
