ULTEM™ Resin 2320G

Sustainable Grade

ULTEM 2320G resin is a high flow 30% glass fiber reinforced polyetherimide resin. This grade contains renewable feedstock through ISCC plus mass-balance certification. The material is RoHS compliant and is intrinsically flame retardant without the use of FR modifiers. The material offers excellent dimension stability, strength, stiffness and creep resistance up to high temperature due to its high glass transition temperature of 217 °C. The material is opaque and can be custom colored.
