NYLENE 406 |
|
TECHNICAL DATA SHEET |
|
| General Description |
- General purpose, fast cycling molding resin
- Crystallization initiators provide fast molding cycles through rapid melt set-up
- Parts molded from 406 have better dimensional stability at moisture equilibrium than parts molded from conventional nylon
- Optimum processing conditions should provide a melt temperature of 450°F-470°F at the nozzle
