Your system supplier for cast nylon additives: Optimal range of properties for cast nylon
Cast nylon 6 is obtained by the anionic polymerization of caprolactam and is a high molecular weight plastic. When casting without pressure, the monomeric caprolactam melt is poured into the mold and polymerized directly by a specific chemical reaction to form a semifinished product or molding. Using Rhein Chemie cast nylon additives, you can achieve various combinations of properties, enabling you to tailor materials to your requirements.
Cast nylon (PA-6 G) is one of today's most innovative thermo- plastics with a vast range of uses in many industrial appli- cations. It is even replacing metal in the automotive industry, for example, but it also has strengths in the production of the ever smaller and more complex components required in electrical engineering and electronics. Cast nylon can also be used in products such as plates, rods, tubes, cable sheaves and pulleys, gears and bearings and in container fabrication.
