PA 6 C / PA 6 G (Cast)

PA 6 C / PA 6 G (Cast)
Cast poly­amide 6 is a semi-crystal­line ther­mo­pla­s­tic produ­ced by the acti­va­ted anio­nic poly­me­riza­tion of the raw mate­rial capro­lac­tam. PA 6 G is available in many diffe­rent modifications.

The data sheets for this mate­rial and other mate­ri­als can be found in our down­load center.
