FLEX NORYL™ Resin WCD795

SABIC's Specialties Business FLEX NORYL™ WCD795 resin is a flexible, non-reinforced extrudable blend of Polyphenylene Ether (PPE) + Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE). This material contains non-halogenated flame retardant and performance capable of meeting UL 1581 VW-1 requirements. FLEX NORYL™ WCD795 resin is intended for evaluation in AC cable jacket applications that require UL62 SVE and NISPE configurations at 90C or 105C temperature rating and black color. It has a Shore A Hardness reading of 79 and exhibits superior thermal stability, very low water absorption, good electric properties, and low specific gravity. Processing is typically conducted on standard extrusion equipment, and UL 1581 testing is conducted on 2.0mm wire with 0.12mm X 20 stranded copper conductor. 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.
