NORYL™ Resin GFN2BIO3

Sustainable Grade

NORYL GFN2BIO3 resin is a 20% glass fiber reinforced blend of polyphenylene ether (PPE) + polystyrene (PS) with bio-based content. This general-purpose injection moldable grade exhibits very low moisture absorption, high strength, hydrolytic stability, Low warpage, low specific gravity, and dimensional stability. NORYL GFN2BIO3 carries a UL746C outdoor suitability rating of F1 and is an excellent candidate for a variety of indoor and outdoor applications including construction, electrical components + displays, lawn and garden equipment. *See NORYL GFN2F resin for FDA food compliant / NSF version.
