SABIC Innovative Plastics Completes its Portfolio of Valox* SHF Resins, Enabling Electrical & Automotive Part Manufacturers to Go with the Flow
BERGEN OP ZOOM, The Netherlands – January 28, 2009 – Today electrical/electronic part designers are pulling their hair trying to shoehorn more functionality into ever-smaller spaces and reduce system costs.

They also speed up processing and cut costs while maintaining good mechanical and heat performances. SABIC Innovative Plastics has raised the bar with a complete portfolio of glass filled Super High Flow Valox* SHF resins offering twice the flow length of standard glass filled polybutylene terephthalate (PBT). With this comprehensive PBT product family, electrical and automotive part manufacturers have many choices when molding thin-wall parts such as connectors and excess voltage cut-off switches.
