Nylene® 406F Nylon 6
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA); Nylon 6 (PA6); Nylon 6, Unreinforced

Material Notes: Dry as molded. Injection molding grade. Nylene 406F is a resin formulated to comply with FDA regulation 21 CFR 177.1500 for food contact applications. Nylene 406F is a general purpose, fast cycling molding resin. Crystallization initiators provide fast molding cycles through rapid melt set-up. Parts molded from 406F have better dimensional stability at moisture equilibrium than parts molded from conventional nylon.
