Attributes

VESTAMID® X7293 NC is distinguished by an easy processing as well as by a high impact strength at low temperatures.. Properties of compounds based on PA 12 vary little with changing humidity due to low moisture absorption. Parts made of this semi- crystalline material are characterized by exceptional impact strength, low coefficient of friction and good chemical resistance.

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® X7293 NC is supplied as cylindrical granules, ready for processing, in moisture-proof bags.
