NYCOSEAL

NYCOSIX: decades of experience in excellence and consistency. NYCOSIX grades are available in a wide range of viscosities including low, medium, high, and ultra-high. In addition, nylon extractable levels can be customized, along with certain additive packages to meet customers’ specifications.  Finally, NYCOA’s NYCOSIX grades offer a unique opportunity to incorporate inorganic in-situ, introducing chemistries such as Nano-clay particles and micronized silica particles, as well as key additives that provide performance benefits across different applications.

NYCOSIX

NYCOADAPT : innovation customized to the application. NYCOADAPT products offers a tremendous range of thermal properties, chemical resistances, mechanical properties, crystallinity, viscosity, flexibility, and other performance characteristics that add value to specialized applications in molding, extrusion, film manufacturing and monofilament production, to name a few

NYCOADAPT

NYCOA's family of specialty engineered specialty copolymer nylons are unique in the performance they offer, and are quite different from shorter chain nylons such as Nylon 6 or Nylon 66. NXTamid-L chemistries were designed as innovative alternatives to Nylon 11 and Nylon 12, and to meet or exceed on the high performance properties such as:flexibilitylower moisture absorptionbroad chemical resistanceIn addition, NXTamid-L have special features that make them unique for high performance applications. NXTamid-L is a fully tunable polymer, meaning NYCOA can customize many properties of our resins:Tunable moisture absorptionAdjustable melt properties and operating temperature rangesCustom compounded grades to incorporate features such as fillers (glass, carbon fiber), UV stabilizers, impact modifiers and moreNXTamid-L is manufactured domestically in the USA, and is available with bio-based components as well.NXTamid products from NYCOA also include NXTamid-T products, such as Nylon 6,12 and Nylon 6,10

NXTamid-L

NYCO66 : Engineering value in PA6.6. Nylon 6.6 represents a unique chemistry with unique properties compared to nylon 6, with a higher melt temperature and differences in thermal properties, abrasion resistance, crystallinity and moisture sensitivity.  NYCOA has used its plastics engineering experience to develop a group of performance engineered nylon 6.6 polymers for our customers, which comprise the NYCO66 family.

NYCOBOND

NYCOFILL: Hardness and Rigidity With Added Special PropertiesNYCOA’s NYCOFILL products offer the versatility and resilience of Nylon as an engineered polymer, combined with added performance value from a “FILL” - a homogeneous particle co-extruded with a NYCOA nylon resin. Most commonly, this process is used for the integration of glass fiber fill into nylon.  Glass-filled (or “GF”) nylons exhibit increased structural and impact strength and rigidity, which makes the popular for replacement of a variety of materials, including metal and rubber parts. NYCOFILL grades offer varying amounts of nylon, from 5% - 50%, with varying performance features:Increased tensile strengthIncreased stiffnessAltered thermal expansion and heat deflection temperatureIn addition to GF Nylon, NYCOFILL engineered filled nylons include exotic additives, including carbon fiber and graphene.  Further, we can compound custom NYCOFILL nylon materials to include heat stabilization, lubricant or mold release, color concentrates, and more.

NYCOFILL

Nylon is known and valued for it's toughness - resistance to wear, abrasion, and many chemicals.  However, in some applications there is a need for enhanced impact modification, break resistance, and more.  NYCOTUFF products are custom-made by NYCOA for just such applications. 

NYCOTUFF

NY-FLEX® : Nylon block copolymers with polyetherPolyether -block -amide (PEBA) Copolymers are true elastomeric grades that are based on nylon (Polyamide) hard segment and Polyether soft segment. They deliver excellent recovery and shock-absorbing properties. NYCOA offers PEBA grades in a range of hardness values from 29-80 Shore D. Customized grades are also offered with specialized additive packages for improved thermal stability, hydrolysis resistance, UV resistance, etc.These elastomeric grades are used in sports and leisure, athletic shoes, ski boot components, and technical films. It is also used in furniture manufacturing, masterbatch applications, footwear and tubing 

NY-FLEX

NY-FLEX® materials are a class of engineered thermoplastic elastomers (E-TPE) and are block copolymers of polyamide and polyether segments. The polyamide block is the hard segment and the polyether block is the soft, flexible segment.

NY-FLEX® 130

NYCOADAPT 1417 HS is a heat stabilized and impact modified Nylon 6. This medium viscosity resin was developed for injection molding and extrusion processes for applications requiring improved toughness, flexibility, and good heat stability.

NYCOADAPT 2011

NY-FLEX® 17.164 brings the unique chemistry of NY-FLEX® engineered thermoplastic elastomers to rotational molding applications. The combination of NY-FLEX® chemistry in rotational molding grades offers premium performance and outstanding impact resistance. 17.164 is available as pellets and 25 mesh, in natural or black.

NY-FLEX® 17.164 Black

NYFLEX® grades are poly(ether-block-amide) copolymers that deliver excellent flexibility at low temperatures, superior retention of properties to elevated temperatures, and exceptional impact toughness. These also exhibit high creep resistance, strong resistance to flex fatigue, good abrasion resistance, and good resistance to greases, oils, and solvents.
