Product Description
Polyether block amide PEBAX® MP 1878 SA 01 is a thermoplsatic elastomer made of flexible polyether and rigid polyamide. Added to PA6, Pebax® MP1878 enhances the properties of PA6, especially at low temperatuers and low humidity content, at the same time maintaining the transparency of the nylon film and improving its soft touch. This SA grade is specially designed to medical and food uses.
