VESTAMID® DX9303 BK E70288

Chemical Family
Polyamides

VESTAMID® DX9303 BK E70288 is a PA 612 extrusion compound developed for tubing systems with higher heat resistance requirements. Its melting point is approximately 35°C higher than that of PA 11 and PA 12 compounds, allowing for higher peak temperatures during use. This compound meets the increased demands resulting from higher temperatures in the engine compartment.

Attributes

The melting point of VESTAMID® DX9303 BK E70288 is about 35°C higher than PA 11 and PA 12 compounds, allows higher peak temperatures in use. Thereby this compound fulfills the increased demands resulting from higher temperatures in the engine compartment.; If it is intended to use VESTAMID® DX9303 BK E70288 for fuel lines, certain preconditions must be observed. The Technical Marketing assists you in finding the suitable VESTAMID® compound. At temperatures above 100°C tubing of VESTAMID® DX9303 BK E70288 allow a higher pressure load than tubing made of PA 12 compounds with comparable flexibility.; The process temperatures should be in the range of 240-270°C.; The material absorbs only little moisture. Therefore dimensions and properties of parts are nearly unaffected through ambient conditions. Pigmentation may affect values.

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.
