Low viscosity, self-extinguishing polyamide 12 compound, free of halogen and phosphorus

VESTAMID® X7166 NC is a heat stabilized PA 12 compound containing a non-migrating flame retardant, free of halogen and phosphorus. Tested according to UL94, VESTAMID® X7166 complies with the flammability class V-2.
 
Due to the halogen- and phosphorus-free flame retardants, VESTAMID® X7166 is especially suitable for the electronic and cable industry. It can be used for injection molding as well as for wire extrusion coating.
 
VESTAMID® X7166 is supplied as cylindrical granules, ready for processing, in moisture-proof bags.

Due to the flame retardants, the melt temperature should not exceed 260°C. We recommend melt temperatures within a range of 210°C to 230°C.

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”.
