ALTECH® ECO PA6 4230/100 GF10 MR20

Chemical Family
Polyamides

MOCOM Compounds ALTECH® ECO PA6 4230/100 GF10 MR20 is a heat-stabilized polyamide 6 blend with 10% glass fibers and 20% mineral. Pre-drying is recommended at 80°C in a dry air (dessiccant) dryer for 2-12 hours, depending on moisture content, with a maximum moisture content of 0.15%. It is suitable for injection molding with a melt temperature of 270-290°C and a mold temperature of 80-100°C. It is typically used in the automotive market for engine covers and housings, and should be stored in a dry and light-protected environment not exceeding 30°C to ensure optimal properties.
