NORYL GFN30F resin is a 30% glass fiber reinforced blend of polyphenylene ether (PPE) + polystyrene (PS). This injection moldable grade exhibits very low moisture absorption, high strength, hydrolytic stability, Low warpage, low specific gravity, and dimensional stability. NORYL GFN30F carries a UL746C outdoor suitability rating of F2 along with FDA food contact compliance and NSF 61 listings in several colors. The properties of this material makes it an excellent candidate for water management applications such as water filter and meter components, pump housings / impellers, shower + faucet, and valves.*See NORYL GFN30 resin for NON FDA / NSF version.
All colors are customizable. Refer our ColorXpress tool to check color availability
