Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) Amodel® AFA-6145 V0 Z PPA, 45% glass fiber
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyphthalamide (PPA); Polyphthalamide (PPA), 50% Glass Fiber Reinforced

Material Notes: 45% glass fiber, flame retardant, high flow, hot-water molds

Amodel® AFA-6145 V0 Z is a 45% glass-fiber reinforced, flame retardant grade of polyphthalamide (PPA) resin specifically formulated for connector applications requiring compatibility with both infrared and vapor phase soldering operations typically used by the electronics industry.

Amodel® AFA-6145 V0 Z offers high flow and short molding cycles, thereby enhancing molding productivity and lowering costs.

- Black: AFA-6145 V0 Z BK 324
- Natural: AFA-6145 V0 Z NT

Applications: Automotive Applications; Automotive Electronics; Automotive Under the Hood; Cell Phones; Connectors; Housings; Industrial Applications; Industrial Parts

Features: Chemical Resistant; Flame Retardant; Good Dimensional Stability; Good Electrical Properties; Good Stiffness; High Flow; High Strength; Hot Water Moldability

Injection notes: Injection Rate: 3 to 4 in/sec
Adjust holding pressure to 1/2 injection pressure.
Set hold time to maximize part weight.
A general purpose screw is recommended, with minimum back pressure.
Storage:
- Amodel® compounds are shipped in moisture-resistant packages at moisture levels according to specifications. Sealed, undamaged bags should be preferably stored in a dry room at a maximum temperature of 50°C (122°F) and should be protected from possible damage. If only a portion of a package is used, the remaining material should be transferred into a sealable container. It is recommended that Amodel® resins be dried prior to molding following the recommendations found in this datasheet and/or in the Amodel® processing guide.
