Design Freedom and Lightweight Performance
Automotive designers look for new ways to stand out from the crowds with esthetically appealing designs and outstanding technical performance. Lightweight, injection molded parts offer design freedom…from special editions to exciting new designs.
NORYL GTX™ resin is an alloy of polyphenylene ether (PPE) and polyamide (PA), combining the inherent properties of PPE (long-term dimensional stability, very low moisture absorption, stiffness, strength, impact resistance) with the chemical resistance and flow of PA.
This advanced thermoplastic allows for new concept designs while providing superior mechanical properties and lightweight solutions that can withstand tough environments.
- Key Properties For Electric Vehicle Wheel Insert
- High heat resistance: to withstand heat build-up in brake or recuperation systems.
- Paintability.
- Impact resistance to enhance crash performance.
- Very low specific gravity for reduced part weight and optimized moment of inertia.
