TROGAMID® CX7323 NC
- Chemical Family
- Polyamides
TROGAMID® CX7323 NC is a specialized polyamide designed for injection molding applications. This microcrystalline transparent polyamide exhibits exceptional transparency to the human eye due to its extremely small crystallite size, which prevents the scattering of visible light. The material's crystalline structure also imparts outstanding crack resistance, ensuring durability and reliability in various manufacturing processes. TROGAMID® CX7323 is conveniently supplied as spherical pellets, packaged in polyethylene. This product allows for a certain degree of flexibility in molds and processing, enabling adjustments to accommodate specific cavity requirements or optimize the overall manufacturing process. With its unique properties, TROGAMID® CX7323 offers a reliable solution for the production of transparent parts through injection molding.
