Bisphenol S (BPS) is an organic compound with the formula (HOC₆H₄)₂SO₂. It has two phenol functional groups on either side of a sulfonyl group. It is commonly used in curing fast-drying epoxy resin adhesives. It is classified as a bisphenol, and a close molecular analog of bisphenol A (BPA). BPS differentiates from BPA by possessing a sulfone group (SO₂) as the central linker of the molecule instead of a dimethylmethylene group (C(CH₃)₂), which is the case of bisphenol A.
