Medium-viscosity, heat-stabilized, glass fiber–reinforced compound based on Nylon 12

VESTAMID® L1833 is a 23% glass fiber-re­inforced, easily demoldable and heat-stabilized polyamide 12 compound.

 

Due to its mold release properties, VESTAMID® L1833 is suitable for the efficient production of injection molded parts with short cycle times.

 

Further advantages of VESTAMID® L1833 are the characteristic properties of polyamide 12 as low water absorption, good dimensional stability and almost the same properties at changing ambient humidity.

VESTAMID® L1833 is supplied as cylindrical granules, ready for processing, in moisture-proof bags.

 

Pigmentation may affect values.

Inside the original and undamaged packaging, the product has a shelf life of at least 2 years when stored in dry rooms at temperatures not exceeding 30°C.

For information about processing of VESTAMID®, please follow the general commendations about “Processing of VESTAMID® compounds”.
