Polyamide PA 66
PA 66 has good stiffness, hardness, abrasion resistance and heat resistance. In these respects PA 66 offers certain advantages over PA 6 and has a higher moisture absorption than the cast variants.
For the other properties, PA 66 is comparable to the standard casting type PA 6 G, but is more expensive.
Properties:
- good mechanical strength
- high impact strength
- good damping capacity
- good wear resistance
PA 66 + MoS2 black
By adding MoS2 to PA 66, a material with improved sliding and friction properties is produced. This is due to the structure of the additive and its nucleating effect. This effect also ensures better stiffness, hardness and dimensional stability of the filled PA 66, although the impact strength of the modified polyamide 66 is reduced.
PA 66 GF 30 black
A PA 66 reinforced with 30% glass fibers, it has outstanding mechanical properties such as higher strength, stiffness, creep resistance and dimensional stability. Compared to non-reinforced PA 66, these properties make the glass fiber-filled modification GF30 a material suitable for components that are exposed to high static loads over long periods of time and at high temperatures. However, since glass fibers can lead to considerable abrasion on contact surfaces in some cases, PA 66 GF30 is less suitable for sliding applications. Due to the black color additives, black PA 66 GF30 offers improved UV protection for applications requiring weathering resistance.
PA 66 GF 50 black
A PA66 filled with 50% glass fibers based on a semi-crystalline polyamide with partial aromatic components for better thermal stability. In addition to heat resistance, this material has been reinforced with a higher proportion of glass fibres than is usual for extruded products. Therefore, this special glass-filled nylon can be used at high operating temperatures of up to 130°C under high load and shows only low warpage.
PA 66 HI brown
Contains a PA 66 with a special additive that reduces the thermal degradation of molecular chains. Thus, service temperatures can be achieved that are approx. 15°C higher than those of standard PA 66 types.
