- Applications
- Impact modifier for recycled PA6 and nylon 66 including low temperature impact strength.
- Compatibilizer for glass filled and plain polyolefin/nylon alloys.
- In-situ toughening of PA6 and PA 66 injection molded components.
- Toughness acquired is a function of ADNYL® E-179 addition level in the PA6 and PA66 matrix.
- Improves processbility of nylon by modifying melt viscosity.
- Decreases water absorption and improves dimensional stability of nylon components.
- Processing Conditions
- ADNYL® E-179 can be added to Polyamides during in-situ injection molding to achieve desired level of toughness.
- Maximum processing temperature should not generally exceed 280°C.
- At temperatures above 290°C, these speciality polymers can evolve low concentrations of fumes.
- If overheated, more extensive decomposition may occur due to exposure of overheated polymers to atmospheric oxygen.
- Adequate local ventilation should be provided to remove the fumes from the work area.

Packaging & Availability
- Packaging Type
- Packaging Information
- ADNYL® speciality polymers are supplied in pre-dried form in 25 Kg (55 lbs) PE lined, HD woven sack-laminated paper bags and 750 Kg (1650 lbs) FIBC’s.
- They should be stored in cool and dry place.
Storage & Handling
- Storage and Handling Procedures
- ADNYL® E-179 should be stored away from heat, sparks and flame.
- It is mildly hygroscopic, though much less than Nylon.
- It is not required to be dried prior to processing if taken out from a sealed pack.
- In case of material lying exposed to humid environments, it is recommended to be dried at 90-95°C for 2-4 hours depending upon the level of exposure.
