HS8171 is recommended for advanced composites and other high temperature applications where softness and workability are required. HS8171 has excellent heat stability and resistance to pin-holing. HS8171 can be heat seemed to fabricate custom shaped bags.

HS8171, like all nylon films, is a hydrophilic material; moisutre and water act as plasticizers. The level of moisture content at time of use can be an important factor for successful performance.
