NYLENE 724
TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

 
General Description    

  • Heat stabilized version of 721 which is a medium-impact modified nylon for fast, easy molding
  • In addition to heat stabilization to prevent thermal degradation, parts molded from Nylene 724 have good impact strength right out of the mold without post conditioning
  • Stiffness is near that of unmodified nylon 6
  • Barrel temperatures should be in the 450°F - 500°F range.
