NORYL GTX™ conductive resins consist of blends of modified polyphenylene ether polymer (PPE) and polyamide (PA).
These blends combine the long-term dimensional stability, low water absorption, low specific gravity and heat resistance of PPE with the chemical resistance and flow of PA polymer.
The result is an extremely chemically resistant material with the stiffness, impact resistance and heat performance required for on-line painting.

- Note
- 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.
- 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.
