(DSM) -- DSM
Engineering Plastics has developed 5 new grades of EcoPaXX, especially for injection molding purposes. EcoPaXX is a polyamide (PA)
410, and belongs to the family of the “long-chain polyamides”. It pairs typical
long-chain polyamide properties, such as low moisture absorption and excellent
chemical resistance, with high melting point and high crystallization
rate.
EcoPaXX new grades are: EcoPaXX Q150-D (unfilled injection molding grade
with potential applications in castor wheels, household equipment, etc.);
EcoPaXX Q-HG6 and Q-HG10 (glass-reinforced heat-stabilised injection molding
grades that can be used for all kind of applications where high stiffness
and toughness are needed); EcoPaXX Q-HGM24 (a glass/mineral reinforced
injection molding grade, especially suited for the injection molding of large
parts) and EcoPaXX Q-KGS6 (a halogen-free flame-retardant glass reinforced
compound to be applied at connectors, circuit breakers, switch
bodies).
EcoPaXX Q-HG6, Q-HG10 and Q-HGM24 will be available on a commercial scale as
of November 2010, while EcoPaXX Q150-D and Q-KGS6 will be available in sample
quantities from January 2011.
