VESTAMID® L LX9104
Polyamide 12
Reinforced, filled and flame-retardant VESTAMID® polyamide 12 compounds
Characterization: high viscosity, plasticized, with flame retardant, halogen free, UL94-V0, increased cold impact strength
Applications: profiles and (corrugated) tubing
In general, it can be said that long-chain, semi-crystalline polyamides absorb little water, are resistant to polar and non-polar solvents, exhibit low creep behavior and high impact resistance and can be used in a wide temperature range. Virtually no other polymer material in this price range exhibits these properties.
