Evonik VESTAMID® LX9012 Bio30 Nylon 12
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA); Nylon 12 (PA12)
Material Notes:	VESTAMID LX9012 Bio30 is a semi-crystalline, heat- and UV-stabilized compound based on PA12. The material was developed for the use in injection molding and is especially suitable for sport and lifestyle applications. The semi-crystalline compound only absorbs small amounts of water. Therefore, components made of this material have excellent dimensional accuracy under changing ambient humidity and are durably scratch-resistant. VESTAMID LX9012 Bio30 is delivered as cylindrical pellets in ready-to-process condition in moisture-tight bags. Preliminary data sheet. The use of colorants can change the property values. Dry properties listed below Industrial Sector: Automotive Sustainable, Sports and Lifestyle Sustainability: Sustainable electricity Processing: Injection molding Delivery form: Pellets, Granules Optics: Translucent Resistance to: Heat (thermal stability), UV / light / weathering Electrical: Insulating Additives: Unfilled Applications: General purpose Processing: Thermoforming Special Characteristics: Semi-crystalline, U.V. stabilized Color: Natural color Additives: Heat stabilizer Delivery form: Cylindrical pellets Chemical Resistance: General chemical resistance Information provided by Evonik.
