Noryl
(polyphenylene oxide, modified)
View
Typical Property Values
Noryl, due to its inherent chemical composition, exhibits unusually
low moisture absorption. Therefore, good electrical insulating
properties are realized over a wide range of humidity and temperature.
Chemical attack from water, most salt solution, acids, and bases
is also minimal with Noryl. The addition of glass fiber reinforcement
enhnaces both mechanical and thermal properties of the basic Noryl
material.
- Good electrical insulating properties
(Due to its exremely low water absorption with values as low
as 0.07%, Noryl is an excellent electrical insulating material.)
- Long-term dimensional stability
- Superior impact strength
(Noryl has a notched Izod impact strength of 3.5 ft-lbs/in.
Noryl exhibits a continuous use temperature in excess of 220
F. Wide range of UL flammability ratings from UL94 HB to UL94
V-1)
- FDA compliance for certain grades
- Light weight
(Noryl, with a density of 0.0383 lbs/in3, can be used in applications
where weight is a significant consideration.)
- Thermoformable capability
- Possesses good hydrolytic stability
Noryl exhibits a broad range of outstanding properties for applications
in computers and business equipment, automotive, electrical insulation,
telecommunications, applicances, electronics, and many other industries.
