ALCOM® PA46 920/1 PTFE15

Chemical Family
Polyamides

MOCOM Compounds ALCOM® PA46 920/1 PTFE15 is a polyamide 4.6-based filler/additive system with 15% PTFE, providing improved sliding/wear, heat stability, and is applicable to a range of market segments, such as machinery and automotive. Its applications include functional components, bearings, and sliding elements. To ensure optimal performance, the product should be pre-dried using 80°C in a dry air (dessiccant) dryer for 2-12 hours, dependent on the moisture content, with a maximum moisture content of 0.01%. For injection molding, the melt temperature should be 305-320°C and the mold temperature should be 40-100°C.
