Technical data will be presented on a new family of modified-polyphenylene ether (MPPE) resins as an alternative to polyvinyl chloride (PVC), flame-retarded polyethylene (FR-PE), and thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) for applications in various segments of the electronics industry. These new materials are non-halogenated, contain no heavy-metal pigments, offer broader thermal performance, and are lighter and more flexible than other thermoplastics.
