Radici Compounds N6050HSL

This family of nylon 6 engineering thermoplastic polymers exhibits a viscosity suitable for general-purpose injection molding applications.

For molded parts, which may be exposed to high temperatures for prolonged periods of time, one of the heat stabilized grades should be selected. N6050HSL contains a conventional stabilizer system, which provides excellent protection against thermal aging, but can slightly tint the natural color, normally to a greenish hue. For applications where preservation of natural color is important, especially for precision color matches, the use of N6050HL, which incorporates an effective stabilizer system free from color effects, is recommended. The properties of these heat-stabilized grades are similar to those of the general-purpose product, with the exception of elongation to break, which may be slightly reduced.

Each formulation offers the high flow, easy processing and outstanding surface appearance that is characteristic of nylon 6 resins, and is lubricated for improved feed and mold release.

Nylon 6 exhibits a unique combination of strength, rigidity and practical toughness, including resistance to repeated impact loads, excellent dynamic fatigue resistance, low coefficient of friction, outstanding abrasion and wear performance even in harsh environments, and resistance to the effects of a very wide range of chemicals and solvents.
