NYLON 6

POLYAMIDE OR NYLON

is one of the most significant raw materials for the engineered resin industry. Key attributes are high impact strength, good slip and abrasive performance as well as outstanding thermal properties.

As our raw materials are residue materials from textile, technical fiber or film applications and as we keep those groups separated from each other, our products have different but consistent viscosity levels. Products made from textile grades usually have a low Rv of 2.3-2.5, other raw materials lead to medium Rv of 2.6-2.7, higher Rv materials will have values of 2.8-2.9, more a specialty are high viscosities starting at Rv 3.0 and higher.

Due to its high impact strength, Nylon 6 is particularly suitable to make compounds that will later end up in applications such as:

ENGINE COVERS
RADIATOR GRILLS
TURN SIGNAL INDICATORS
WALL PLUGS
ELECTRIC TOOL CASINGS
CHAIR BASES
