NORYL™ Resin HS2000X

SABIC's Specialties Business NORYL™ HS2000X resin is a 17% mineral reinforced blend of polyphenylene ether (PPE) + polystyrene (PS). This injection moldable grade contains non-brominated, non-chlorinated flame retardant and carries a UL94 flame rating of 5VA at 2mm and V0 at 1.5m along with UL746C Outdoor Suitability rating of F1. NORYL™ HS2000X resin exhibits strong electrical performance, dimensional stability, very low moisture absorption, and hydrolytic stability. This material is an excellent candidate for electronic / electrical indoor and outdoor applications including air conditioner parts, smoke detector covers, pool + spa pump parts and housings.
