PA 12 E (polyamide 12 extruded)

Extruded PA 12 is a semi-crystalline polyamide with very high toughness and good chemical resistance.

Of all polyamides, PA 12 E is characterized by the lowest water absorption. It also has good impact strength.

Properties

The properties of PA 12 E are:
  • lowest water absorption
  • very good impact strength and notched impact strength
  • good chemical resistance
  • very good resistance to stress cracking
  • good sliding friction behaviour

Applications

PA 12 E can be used in the following areas:
  • Precision parts
  • Drive parts
  • Housing

PA 12 E GF30

Modification by additives for improved properties.

This PA 12 E reinforced with 30% glass fibers has higher strength, stiffness, creep resistance and dimensional stability than the unreinforced PA 12.

 

Properties:

  • very high stiffness
  • high mechanical strength
  • high hardness and toughness
  • high creep resistance
  • very high dimensional stability
  • good fatigue strength
  • low moisture absorption

 

Because of these properties, the material is well suited for parts that are exposed to large static loads in the higher temperature range over the long term. Since glass fibers tend to cause significant abrasion of the mating surface, PA 12 E GF30 is less suitable for sliding applications.
