PA 6 is a synthetic thermoplastic linear polyamide with many other names such as Nylon 6, Polycaprolactam, Polyamide 6.
It is commonly used in manufacturing industry because of its excellent properties:
- high strength and stiffness at high temperature
- good impact strength, even at low temperature
- very good flow for easy processing
- good abrasion and wear resistance
- excellent fuel and oil resistance
- good fatigue resistance
- excellent surface appearance and good processability
- good electrical insulating properties
- environmentally friendly, 100% recyclable
PA 6 can be processed by all common melt processing techniques such as Injection Molding, Extrusion, 3D Printing, Film stretching, Spinning and etc.
Relative Viscosity is one of the most important parameter when choosing PA 6 material for different applications. Generally speaking, high viscosity material is suitable for tube drawing, blow moulding, film blowing processes; medium viscosity material is suitable for direct injection moulding and injection moulding after material modification; low viscosity material is suitable for thin wall product injection moulding.
Moresu MS245
MS245 is a bright nylon 6 raw chip with relative viscosity of 2.45.
The good flow property of our MS245 during injection process provide a better surface appearance, especially for large dimensions products such as automotive engine cover, truck cooling fan and etc.. It is also suitable for injection moulding of thin walls or complex structures products such as micro motor coil frame, large switch housing and etc.
MS245 can also be used in high speed spinning manufacturing.
