Promyde® Product Overview – Un lled PA6

Un lled Promyde® is produced in NUREL’s polymerization process in which unique additivation packages and polymer chain modi cations are made combining cost effectiveness and differential properties. Customers receive Promyde un lled polyamide 6 in its purest state. Promyde unreinforced products are melted for the rst time in our customer’s injection moulding machines. Un lled Promyde is not melted and extruded to incorporate special additives. Hence, optimizing processing and performance.

Newly developed Transparency Technical withPolyamides Promyde®

Copolyamide: Improved transparency Recent market requests, asking for transparent polyamides, have coincided with NUREL’s continued development programme. Promyde B930 P is available upon request for applications where extra transparency is desired over conventional polyamide 6 applications. B930 P is a semi-crystalline polymer. Therefore, it is only recommended for applications under 60ºC. Main applications include: · Electrical and electronic components such us switches · Automotive applications can be used for decorative surfaces and liquid level indicators · Filter cups for fuels and air · Window and inspection glasses, ow meters · Decorative applications such as handles and other decorative pieces · Ink cartridges for printers % Haze ASTMD1003 (1,5mm; Tª Form=30 ºC) 10 8 6 4 2 0 Transparenz Promyde PA B930 P 7

Newlybonding developed Technical Polyamides Improve Product with Overview: High Amino Filled Content PA6

High Amino Content An increased content of amino groups means many more free hydrogen atoms available for chemical bonding. This means improved adherence! Promyde® B27 80 A provides mechanical, chemical and temperature resistance whilst permitting easy bonding to other materials required for a different purpose. Therefore, useful for valves and connectors in high temperature environments. Promyde B40 80 A is an extrusion grade providing improved bonding to reduce the tie layer needed for bonding to other materials, also used to enable overall improved bonding in multi layer pipes,

Coloured Polyamides To attend better the requests received from our market, NUREL has invested in the production, service, and supply of coloured polyamides. Producing a quality colour match in quick time individual customer requests. Some basic colours can prove straight forward, samples can even change in colour after their production. Experience in the use of pigments is key to avoiding With the various and different types of colour cards available such as RAL and PMS, furthermore the gloss variations from the 210 standard RAL 840-HR colours, by no means is supplying an exact colour match an easy feat. Colour matching is then performed according to the code or the part. Accurate L.A.B colour measurements are then analysed to ensure a correct match has been given.
