ALTECH® PA6 A 1000/106

Chemical Family
Polyamides

MOCOM Compounds ALTECH® PA6 A 1000/106 is a polyamide 6 base polymer with fast solidifying, easy release (demolding), and easy flow properties. It is suitable for use in injection molding, with a melt temperature of 250-270°C and a mold temperature of 40-80°C. Pre-drying conditions should be maintained at 80°C in a dry air (dessiccant) dryer for 2-12 hours, depending on moisture content, with a maximum moisture content of 0.15%. Typical applications include housings and handles. To ensure product quality and consistency, it is necessary to perform regular quality checks.
