FLEX NORYL™ Resin WCV063
SABIC's Specialties Business FLEX NORYL WCV063 resin is a flexible, non-reinforced extrudable blend of Polyphenylene Ether (PPE) + Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE). This material contains non-halogenated flame retardant and carries UL VW-1 and UL94 V0 ratings along with a Shore D Hardness reading of 63. FLEX NORYL WCV063 resin was developed for evaluation in automotive wire + cable applications requiring ISO6722 Class A or B. It exhibits ultra thin-wall capability, Good scratch abrasion and pinch resistance, High dimensional stability, low shrinkage and warpage, Very low water absorption, chemical resistance, and good dieletrcic strength. 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.
