描述
NORYL FM3020V Resin is a 30% glass fiber and mineral filled, high modulus foamable blend of polyphenylene ether (PPE) and polystyrene (PS), manufactured by SABIC. This structural foam grade contains non-brominated, non-chlorinated flame retardant and carries a UL94 flame rating of 5VA and V-1 at 5mm.
NORYL FM3020V Resin offers up to 9% weight reduction at 5mm wall thickness compared to solid molding, along with fast cycle time, improved processing, good dimensional stability, and low moisture absorption. It is an excellent candidate for computer and business machine applications, electrical enclosures/housings, and medical equipment. Physical property data is determined using test methods established by ASTM International, the globally recognized standards organization.
