NORYL™ Resin GFN3L
SABIC's Specialties Business NORYL™ GFN3L resin is a 30% glass fiber reinforced blend of polyphenylene ether (PPE) + polystyrene (PS). This injection moldable grade exhibits improved hydrolytic stability along with very low moisture absorption, high strength, Low warp, low specific gravity, and excellent dimensional stability. NORYL™ GFN3L carries a UL HB flame rating and is an excellent candidate for a variety of indoor and outdoor applications including construction, electrical components + displays, lawn and garden equipment. *See NORYL™ GFN3F resin for FDA food compliant / NSF version 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.

ᵍ Measurements made from Laboratory test Coupon. Actual shrinkage may vary outside of range due to differences in processing conditions, equipment, part geometry and tool design. It is recommended that mold shrinkage studies be performed with surrogate or legacy tooling prior to cutting tools for new molded article.; ʳ UL Ratings shown on the technical datasheet might not cover the full range of thicknesses, colors and regions. For details, please see the UL Yellow Card.; ⁷ Injection Molding parameters are only mentioned as general guidelines. These may not apply or may need adjustment in specific situations such as low shot sizes, large part molding, thin wall molding and gas-assist molding.; ¹¹ The information stated on Technical Datasheets should be used as indicative only for material selection purposes and not be utilized as specification or used for part or tool design.
