A prosthetic device comprising at least one part consisting of a polymer composition comprising at least one polyarylene (P1) and at least one polyarylether selected from the group consisting of poly(aryl ether ketone)s (P2) and poly(aryl ether sulfone)s (P3).

Prosthetic devices

A prosthetic device made of a first specific type of polyarylene, taken alone or in combination with a second specific type of polyarylene, featuring some unexpected advantages such as a very high strength and stiffness, good elongation properties, high chemical resistance, good biocompatibility as well as an outstanding impact resistance.

An ammunition article is provided which comprises a casing and a cap wherein the casing is formed from a polymeric material that has a room temperature notched Izod impact value greater than about 10 ft lbs/in and then has a ratio of notched Izod impact value at room temperature to notch Izod impact value at about &#x2212;40&#xb0; C. of less than about 4.

Ammunition casing

Compositions comprising blends of polyphenylene and poly(aryl ether sulfone) and methods for making such blends are disclosed. Miscible blends of polyphenylene and poly(aryl ether sulfone) are also disclosed. The blends are useful in numerous applications such as in the preparation of articles and of foams having reduced density.
