ALTECH® PA6 A 1000/520 UV HV

Chemical Family
Polyamides

MOCOM Compounds ALTECH® PA6 A 1000/520 UV HV is a Polyamide 6 base polymer that is heat and UV stabilized and fast solidifying with a high viscosity. It is suitable for extruded parts in the building and construction market. Pre-drying conditions should be 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%. For injection molding, it is recommended to use a melt temperature of 250-270°C and a mold temperature of 40-80°C. Additionally, the molding machine should have a large shot capacity and high injection pressure.
