WIC PA6 40 BK
- Chemical Family
- Polyamides
WIC PA6 40 BK is a polyamide 6 base polymer filled with 40% carbon fiber and colored black. It has medium viscosity and is heat-aging stabilized, making it suitable for the automotive and sport market segments. Pre-drying conditions involve drying at 80°C in a dry-air dryer for 2-8 hours, depending on moisture content, with a maximum moisture content of 0.12%. Processing conditions involve injection molding with a melt temperature of 250-270°C and a mold temperature of 60-100°C. Under certain conditions, the increased thermal conductivity must be taken into account for optimal performance.
