High-viscosity, plasticized, heat- and light-stabilized, impact-modified polyamide 612 compound for extrusion. VESTAMID DX9303 is a PA 612 extrusion compound developed for the production of tubing systems with higher requirements for heat resistance. The melting point of VESTAMID DX9303 is about 35°C higher than PA 11 and PA 12 compounds, allows higher peak temperatures in use. Thereby this compound fulfills the increased demands resulting from higher temperatures in the engine compartment. If it is intended to use VESTAMID DX9303 for fuel lines, certain preconditions must be observed. At temperatures above 100°C tubing of VESTAMID DX9303 allow a higher pressure load than tubing made of PA 12 compounds with comparable flexibility. The material absorbs only little moisture. Therefore dimensions and properties of parts are nearly unaffected through ambient conditions. Property data for dry samples. Information provided by Evonik. |
