Heat stabilized polyamide 12 compound

VESTAMID® LX9042 NC 
is an easy mold release and heat stabilized compound. Due to its highly effective mold release agents, VESTAMID® LX9042 NC is suitable for the efficient production of injection molded parts with very short cycle times.

In addition, VESTAMID® LX9042 NC is nucleated to reduce the cycle time even further and/or to reduce the shrinkage.

Properties of compounds based on Polyamide12 vary little with changing humidity due to their low moisture absorption.

Parts made of this semicrystalline material are characterized by exceptional impact strength, low coefficient of friction and good chemical resistance.
 
VESTAMID® LX9042 NC is supplied as cylindrical granules, ready for processing, in moisture-proof bags.

Pigmentation may affect values.

The results shown have been generated from a low number of production lots. Therefore, they are preliminary and not yet the result of a statistical evaluation. Therefore they must not be used to establish specifications.

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