ALTECH® PA6 A 2020/516 GF20 IM

1 of 305 products in this brand
MOCOM Compounds ALTECH® PA6 A 2020/516 GF20 IM is a polyamide 6 injection molding grade with 20% glass fibers and heat stabilization, impact modification, and easy release (demolding). It is suitable for various applications and requires pre-drying conditions. For optimal results, processing injection molding temperatures should range from 270-290°C (melt temperature) and 80-100°C (mold temperature). Molding should be performed at the lowest possible temperature to reduce the risk of material degradation.
