Modified Glass-Filled Polyamide Examid PA6 GF20

Description


Heat-stabilized polyamide 6 with 20% glass fiber, black. Modifiers based on a new technology provide reduced moisture absorption, high strength and material savings thanks to the lower weight of finished parts.

Advantages

  • reduced part weight compared with standard glass-filled PA6
  • good stiffness combined with resilience and ductility.
  • withstands complex loads very well
  • higher heat resistance compared with PA6-L-SV30
  • UV-stabilized
  • resistant to thermal-oxidative aging

Applications


Industrial and household products requiring high strength. Industries: automotive, machine building, electrical engineering, furniture and hardware.
