Formula: PA 6 - (C₆H₁₁N)ₙ
Form: Coil
Material: Polyamide 6 (PA)
CAS Number: 25038-54-4
Commodity: Polymers
Nylon 6 is a versatile, semi-crystalline polyamide polymer. It’s known for its high tensile strength, excellent wear resistance, and good chemical resistance. It’s non-abrasive, has high impact resistance, and doesn’t require lubrication. It also boasts superior impact resistance, durability against wear, and electrical insulation capabilities. This polyamide is highly flexible and resistant to fatigue. It has numerous applications in automotive parts and industrial machinery (gear, bearings), electrical components (cable ties, circuit breakers), and consumer goods (sports equipment, household items).
