VESTAMID® LX9013 BK 9.7507
- Chemical Family
- Polyamides
VESTAMID® LX9013 BK 9.7507 is a plasticized polyamide 12 compound with exceptionally high long-term resistance under thermal load. It has low moisture absorption, resulting in minimal dimensional and property changes under changing ambient conditions. Extruded tubes made from VESTAMID® LX9013 BK 9.7507 are impact-resistant, even at low temperatures. This material is suitable for producing flexible tubes that are consistently exposed to higher temperatures, such as in the engine compartment of motor vehicles.

- Attributes
VESTAMID® LX9013 BK 9.7507 is a plasticized polyamide 12 compound with an especially high long-term resistance under thermal load.; The material absorbs only little moisture, thus leading to nearly unaffected dimensions and properties of the finished parts at changing ambient conditions. Extruded tubes are impact-resistant also at low temperatures.; VESTAMID® LX9013 BK 9.7507 is suited to produce flexible tubes that are permanently exposed to higher temperatures, e.g., in the engine compartment of motor vehicles. Especially when used as diesel fuel lines they show significant advantages compared with standard grades, obvious in storage tests with diesel fuel (see the figure).; The material corresponds to the extrusion compound PA12-HIPHL, grade1 acc. DIN 73378 and meets the requirements acc. DIN 74324 (black), ISO 7628 and SAE J844.
- Storage Condition
Inside the original and undamaged packaging, the product has a shelf life of at least 2 years when stored in dry rooms at temperatures not exceeding 30°C.
- Packaging Information
VESTAMID® LX9013 BK 9.7507 is supplied as pellets in moisture-proof packaging ready for processing.
