ALCOM® PA6 900/1 SI3
- Chemical Family
- Polyamides
MOCOM Compounds ALCOM® PA6 900/1 SI3 is a polyamide 6 base polymer with a 3% silicone filler/additive system. It has improved sliding/wear and heat stabilized properties, making it suitable for functional components, bearings and sliding elements in the automotive and machinery market segments. It should be pre-dried in a dry air (dessiccant) dryer under 80°C for 2-12 hours depending on moisture content. The recommended melt temperature range is 250-270°C, and the mold temperature should be 40-80°C.
