Azoty Tarnow™ Tarnamid® T-27 MS Polyamide 6 - Natural
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA); Nylon 6 (PA6); Nylon 6, Unreinforced

Material Notes: Medium viscosity injection molding grade, also used for compounding, for production of monofilament, bristles and fibers.

For uncolored parts produced by injection molding, contain including and demolding agents.

Tarnamid® has the following main properties:

  • High mechanical strength, rigidity and hardness
  • High impact strength
  • High vibration damping capacity
  • Good fatigue strength
  • Very good sliding properties, abrasion resistance, low coefficient of friction
  • High thermal resistance, admissible temperature of continuous operation from -60°C to +150°C
  • High chemical resistance, particularly to organic solvents, oils, lubricants and fuels
  • Considerable moisture absorption influencing mechanical and electrical properties
  • Self-extinguishing properties (fire retardant properties)
  • Good electro-insulating properties
  • Good optical properties, relatively good transparency of molded pieces with thickness below 3.2 mm made from natural Tarnamid® (not dyed and not compounded)
  • Can be used for the production of goods coming into contact with food (grades fulfilling requirement of European Union Directive No 2002/72/EEC) with latest amendments
