ALTECH® PA6 B 1000/170
- Chemical Family
- Polyamides
MOCOM Compounds ALTECH® PA6 B 1000/170 is a polyamide 6 base polymer that solidifies quickly and is easy to demold. It is heat and processing stabilized, making it suitable for injection molding with melt temperatures between 250-270°C and mold temperatures between 40-80°C. This polymer is suitable for use in the automotive, machinery, building and construction, and sport and leisure markets. It can be used for injection molded parts, clothing/fasteners, and for housings and functional components.
