NXTamid-L: Innovative Specialty Polyamides - Your Substitute for Nylon 12
Polymer family designed to exceed the performance of Nylon 12 and 11. This innovative product offers a wide range of applications and unprecedented customization.
Advantages of NXTamid L:
- Low moisture absorption
- High chemical resistance
- Greater flexibility
- Processable thermal properties
Specialty tubing - medical and industrial - are common applications for long-chain polyamide materials
Customizable, Tunable Long-Chain Nylon
Because our chemistry and process are unique, NYCOA can modify the properties of a tailor-made NXTamid-L product for your application and needs, including such properties as: Increasing UV resistance, additional heat stabilization, specific qualities for moisture absorption, and dialing in a desired softness profile with plasticizer packages, to name a few. Some of these added features are added via NYCOA’s compounding capabilities, while others can be integrated at a more fundamental level - in situ - through NYCOA’s dedicated polymer synthesis capabilities.
With NXTamid-L from NYCOA, engineer a polyamide resin for YOUR needs and YOUR application. Then watch it perform.
Sample Applications for NYCOA’s NXTamid Resins:
Tubing (industrial and medical)
Monofilament applications
Extruded Protective Sheathing
Polymer Film applications
Coatings
NXTAMID- T (610&612)
Long-chain polyamides stand out for their dimensional stability, lower moisture absorption and high performance. These materials are ideal for injection, extrusion, blow molding, piping and rotomolding processes.
Advantages of Nylon 610 and 612:
High resistance to impact and wear
Good electrical insulation properties
High chemical resistance
Lower moisture absorption than Nylon 6 and 66
Applications:
- Monofilaments for cables and brush bristles
- Extruded pipes and profiles for fuel and brake lines
- Glass or carbon fiber reinforced grades for metal replacement
- Food contact applications
