TECANYL®, due to its inherent chemical composition, exhibits unusually low moisture absorption. Therefore, good electrical insulating properties are realized over a wide range of humidity and temperature conditions. Chemical attack from water, most salt solutions, acids and bases is also minimal with TECANYL®. The addition of glass fiber reinforcement enhances both the mechanical and thermal properties of the basic TECANYL® material. Made from Noryl® EN265 resin.
- Good electrical insulating properties
Due to its extremely low water absorption with values as low as 0.07%, TECANYL® is an excellent electrical insulating material. - Long-term dimensional stability
- Superior impact strength
TECANYL® has a notched Izod impact strength of 3.5 ft-lbs/in. - TECANYL® exhibits a continuous use temperature in excess of 220°F
- Wide range of UL flammability ratings from
UL94 HB to UL94 V-1 - Light weight
TECANYL®, with a density of 0.0383 lbs/in3, can be used in applications where weight is a significant consideration. - Thermoformable capability
- Possesses good hydrolytic stability
Made from Noryl EN265 resin® exhibits a broad range of outstanding properties for applications in computers and business equipment, automotive, electrical insulation, telecommunications, appliances, electronics, and many other industries.
