Nylene® NX1170

Chemical Family: Polyamides

Nylene Nylene NX1170 is a high viscosity, extrusion grade resin containing 5% molybdenum disulfide for improved wear resistance. The abrasion resistance of nylon 6 is enhanced by the addition of molysulfide. Because of its high melt viscosity, NX1170 can be extruded into rods, tubing, thin films, many complex shapes.
