- High-temperature resistance than other PA materials.
- Excellent mechanical properties.
- Polyamide 6 can be monomer cast. The method is suitable for large voltage-free details in short series.
- Unfilled PAs are food approved.
- It is hygroscopic, although less than PA 6.
- Like all polyamides, it absorbs or emits moisture.
- The moisture acts as a plasticizer and lowers the tensile strength, creep resistance, and rigidity while increasing the impact strength and component dimensions.
- The electrical properties are strongly influenced by the moisture content.
- The length extension varies with temperature and moisture content.
- The polyamides are attacked by strong mineral acids and acetic acid; they are dissolved by phenols. Some types are attacked by formic acid.
Specific properties
Nylatron 703 XL is an ultra-high performance bearing grade of PA 6 that provides wear resistance near the levels of Nylatron NSM combined with superior pressure-velocity capabilities and an industry first; a near zero level of “stick-slip”. The elimination of stick-slip, usually associated with chatter or squeaking, provides an extraordinary amount of motion control for high-precision applications.
