NORYL GTX™ Resin NX0031
SABIC's Specialties Business NORYL GTX NX0031 resin is a non-reinforced alloy of Polyphenylene Ether (PPE) + Polyamide (PA). This conductive, injection moldable grade exhibits high heat resistance, excellent chemical resistance, and high impact resistance. NORYL NX0031 resin was designed for electrostatic painting and powder coating without the need for a conductive primer. This material can also be solvent painted and is an excellent for candidate for exterior, painted applications such as trim and fairings for outdoor vehicles, motorcycle, heavy truck, bus, personal watercraft, and marine. It is available only in black. This product does not contain PFAS intentionally added during SHPP’s manufacturing process and are not expected to contain unintentional PFAS impurities. Each user is responsible for evaluating the presence of unintentional PFAS impurities.
