AdvanSix Aegis® HCA73ZP Nylon 6/6,6 Extrusion Grade Copolymer (discontinued **)
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA); Nylon 6/66; Nylon 66/6, Unreinforced
Material Notes:	Description: Aegis HCA73ZP is a low viscosity nylon 6/6,6 copolymer extrusion grade. It conforms to Food and Drug Administration requirements of 21 CFR177.1500. Aegis HCA73ZP possesses the combination of strength and toughness associated with nylon 6/6,6 as well as excellent heat, chemical, and abrasion resistance. The reduced melt point (385 degF/196 degC) of this resin results in lower process melt temperature, lower head pressure, and lower amperage. This translates to higher extrusion rates and thinner nylon layer capabilities. It will also thermoform at lower temperatures and yield higher production rates. Applications: Processed Meat Fresh Red Meat Poultry Fish Cheese Dried Food Chilled Fruit Juices Former Honeywell product; AdvanSix is a spin-off of Honeywell.
