Nylon 6 & 66 are both synthetic polymers called polyamides. These Nylons are semi-crystalline and possess good strength and durability for demanding applications. Under the umbrella of our NyLux® series, is our EcoLux® line which offers various grades of recycled Nylon polymer. While the chemical structure of 6 & 66 differ largely in their composition of atoms, they both offer the following similarities in our NyLux® Series: Our NyLux® Series offers high mechanical strength, stiffness, hardness and toughness, good fatigue resistance, high mechanical damping ability, good sliding properties, excellent wear resistance, good electrical insulating properties, good resistance to high energy radiations and good machinability.
