AMILAN™ Nylon resin

AMILAN™ Nylon resin is a thermoplastic engineering plastic containing an amide group (-CONH-) and it exhibits excellent strength, toughness, heat resistance, and anti-friction wear resistance.

Toray’s lineup consists of Nylon 6, Nylon 66, Nylon 610 as well as a large number of co-polymer nylon formulations. In addition, a variety of grades designed for various customer needs and applications are available, including non-reinforced, reinforced, flame retardant, anti-friction wear, high impact, film, monofilament, and blow molding grades.

Features

■Nylon 6 and Nylon 66

  • Features an excellent balance of properties in terms of mechanical behavior.
  • Features superior toughness under standard humidity conditions.
  • Features superior chemical and oil resistance.
  • Features superior anti-abrasion and wear resistance.
  • The self-extinguishing and flame retardant properties of almost all grades conforms with UL standard 94V0.
  • Features superior long-term heat resistance (maximum long-term continuous use temperature: approximately 80~150℃)
  • Grades that are reinforced with glass fibers are particularly outstanding in terms of their elastic modulus and strength.
  • Features low gasoline permeability and superior gas barrier properties.

■Nylon 610

  • Features excellent flexibility as well as impact resistance at low temperatures.
  • Features relatively minimal absorbency and excellent dimensional stability.
  • Features excellent bending fatigue properties.

■Copolymer Nylon

  • Products with special features including transparency, flexibility, and adhesiveness are available.
  • Products with special characteristics including solubility in alcohol are available.
