| Description: Latamid 66 is a family of Nylon 66 with various reinforcements and corresponding properties. They are distinguished by their excellent flowability, moldability and good mechanical and electrical properties. Glossy finish is achievable in a wide range of colors. Pieces made of Latamid 66 can be painted without any particular problem. Nylon 66 is a hygroscopic resin but to a lesser extent than Nylon 6. This may be an advantage as it improves flexibility and impact resistance of the parts, but in other cases, water absorption is likely to cause dimensional changes that are not always compatible with tight tolerance requirements. Furthermore, variation of mechanical characteristics resulting from water absorption will not always be acceptable. Specific Notes for this Material: 30% mixed glass/carbon fibers; heat-stabilized; low electric resistivity; self-lubricating properties; high rigidity; low coefficient of linear thermal expansion. Disclaimer from LATI: This document contains information based on average values as obtained from the results of laboratory tests and observations made on LATI materials. Tested materials were injection molded, used in their natural color, and conditioned in compliance with Standard ASTM D 618, procedure A. These values refer to LATI's best technical and scientific knowledge at the moment of testing and cannot be used as a basis for the development of applications. For a better assessment of the materials, you are kindly requested to contact LATI's technical or commercial offices, which are at your disposal and will supply detailed information on the most suitable characteristics for their intended use.
