SABIC Innovative Plastics’ New Noryl GTX* Conductive Resins Offer Greater Dimensional Stability for Larger Automotive Body Panels
BERGEN OP ZOOM, The Netherlands – November 16, 2010 – At K 2010, SABIC Innovative Plastics launched its latest high-tech thermoplastic offering – a new family of Noryl GTX* resins – to give global automotive OEMs and tiers a major design advantage. These new conductive blends of polyamide (PA) and modified polyphenylene ether (PPE) cut coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) by 20 to 40 percent vs. previous grades for increased dimensional stability and improved gap and flush management, giving automotive designers greater freedom to create larger top-quality, high-precision body panels than previously feasible, and which integrate into existing processes, including higher-heat online painting systems. These high-performance materials underscore SABIC Innovative Plastics’ strategic focus on helping automotive customers create differentiated designs that also promote system cost reduction and sustainability through weight-out.
