PA 6.6 (polyamide 6.6)

PA 6.6 has good stiffness, hardness, abrasion resistance and heat resistance.

Here, PA 6.6 offers advantages over PA 6. Compared to the cast variants, PA 6.6 shows higher moisture absorption. In terms of other properties, PA 6.6 is similar to cast PA 6, but about 60% more expensive.

Properties

The properties of PA 6.6 are:

high mechanical strength, stiffness, hardness and toughness
good fatigue resistance
high mechanical damping capacity
good sliding properties
very high wear resistance
good electrical insulation properties
high resistance to high-energy radiation (gamma and X-rays)
good machinability

Applications

PA 6.6 can be used in the following areas:

Sliding elements and rollers
Gears, switch gears and cams
Guides, sliding plates
Valve seats and bodies

Modification options

Modification by additives for the improvement of properties.

PA 6.6 CF20 (with 20% carbon fibers for an increased service temperature of 170°C)
PA 6.6 GF30 (with 30% glass fibers for higher strength, stiffness, creep resistance and dimensional stability)
Nylatron® GS* (with MoS² for higher stiffness, hardness and dimensional stability)
Nylatron® 66 SA FR* (fire protection material with halogen-free flame retardant)
