Nylon PA11 is a superior engineering thermoplastic that provides superior performance for a wide range of applications. It is more flexible and impact resistant than PA12, offers better chemical resistance, and is more environmentally friendly than other engineering thermoplastics.
PA11 is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications as it has excellent mechanical properties and can withstand heavy impacts and vibrations. Additionally, it is a bio-based material derived from renewable resources, such as castor oil and sugarcane, making it a more eco-friendly option than traditional thermoplastics.
The mechanical properties of this material give it superior performance when compared to other thermoplastics, making it the ideal material for applications that require superior strength and impact resistance. It is also more heat resistant than other plastics, and can withstand for a limited time temperatures up to 250°C. Furthermore, it is a lightweight material, making it perfect for applications where weight is a major factor.
