Abstract: Compositions and methods for aromatic polysulfone copolymers are described herein. The polysulfone copolymers have advantageous properties, particularly in terms of high glass transition temperatures (Tg), improved thermal stability, improved flame resistance, good mechanical properties, chemical resistance and dimensional stability at elevated temperature. The polysulfone copolymers are suitable for manufacturing high temperature molded systems and other articles of manufacture via injection molding, extrusion, compression molding, coating, blow molding, thermoforming, rotational molding and additive manufacturing.
