ALTECH® PA6 B 2015/106 GF15

Chemical Family
Polyamides

MOCOM Compounds ALTECH® PA6 B 2015/106 GF15 is a polyamide 6 with 15% glass fibers. It is high heat stabilized, has high surface gloss, is processing stabilized and has easy release (demolding) properties. It is popularly used in the automotive, machinery, electrical and electronic industries for injection molded parts such as handles, housings, functional components, and operating elements. For optimal performance, it should be protected from light and stored at temperatures not exceeding 30°C. For injection molding, the recommended melt temperature is 270-290°C and the mold temperature should be 80-100°C.
