CompaMid®
Holds up even at maximum temperaturesOur new crosslinkable CompaMid ® PA 6 compounds are thermoplastic polymers which behave like elastomers over a wide temperature range as a result of beta radiation crosslinking. Thanks to crosslinking, the originally thermoplastic material can withstand significantly higher temperatures of up to 350 °C, thus providing greater shape retention under thermal load. Due to its excellent performance profile, crosslinkable CompaMid ® PA 6 can replace costly highperformance plastics such as PPA, PPS or LCP in many cases. No mold changes are required when switching from standard PA 6 to CompaMid ® PA 6, and the process parameters also remain the same.
