Polyamide-6

PA 6 (Polyamide 6) is a high-performance engineering plastic offering excellent mechanical strength, thermal stability and impact resistance. Widely used in automotive, electrical and industrial applications.

PA 6 (Polyamide 6) offers high impact resistance, easy processability, excellent thermal resistance and outstanding mechanical properties. A wide range of products can be manufactured with different viscosity grades, reinforced with glass fiber, carbon fiber and similar fillers, rubber-modified, laser-markable, heat-resistant, mineral-filled and flame-retardant grades. Due to these properties, polyamide products are widely used in many industrial and special engineering applications.
