EcoPaXX® Q-KG3-FC (Q-X08736)

Chemical Family
Polyamides

EcoPaXX® Q-KG3-FC (Q-X08736) is a bio-based, high-performance polyamide (PA410) made mainly from tropical castor beans that do not compete with the food chain. It offers excellent processability and surface quality, and it is safe for use in a broad variety of food contact applications. Belonging to the family of long-chain polyamides, it provides exceptional performance in demanding environments, including excellent chemical resistance, low moisture absorption, a very high melting point (highest among bio-plastics), and a high crystallization rate. This grade can be processed through extrusion and injection molding and includes 15% glass reinforcement, meeting food contact quality standards.
