Nylene® Nylene NX 1440C Nylon 6
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA); Nylon 6 (PA6); Nylon 6, Unreinforced

Material Notes: Medium viscosity, fast cycle molding resin. Crystallization initiators provide fast molding cycles through rapid melt set-up. Parts molded from NX1440 have better dimensional stability at moisture equilibrium than parts molded from conventional nylon. Suitable for such uses as clips and fasteners, bushings, small levers, gears, and window hardware. Optimum processing conditions should provide a melt temperature of 460 - 480°F at the nozzle.

Testing conducted on dry as molded specimen at 73°F
