Global EPP PA 612 Copolymer Cast Polyamide 612

Cast nylons are generally accepted as the primary engineering polymer, suitable for virtually any plain bearing application. By varying the conditions of polymerisation the mechanical properties of cast nylons may be altered to suit specific applications, and the performance of the basic polymer can be enhanced with the addition of various additives, fillers, lubricants and colorants.Key characteristics:Unequalled formulation options and profile rangeExcellent mechanical, thermal and chemical resistanceExcellent PV and load bearing capabilitiesExcellent wear and abrasion resistanceGood dimensional stability, largely free from internal stressesFDA compliant grades availableCP612 is a copolymer of nylon 6 and nylon 12 produced by anionic polymerisation of caprolactam and laurinlactam. The copolymer makeup gives the product a greater degree of material resilience, reduces moisture absorption and greatly improves impact resistance.
