Evonik VESTAMID® LX9117 BK Nylon 12, Glass Fiber Reinforced
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA); Nylon 12 (PA12); Nylon 12, 20% Glass Fiber Filled
Material Notes:	VESTAMID® LX9117 BK is a glass-fiber-reinforced, electrically conductive PA12 molding compound that was developed in particular for the injection molding of connecting elements for fuel line systems (such as quick connectors). The electrical conductivity of VESTAMID® LX9117 BK changes only slightly on contact with fuels, even if they contain alcohol. This is of great importance for use in fuel-conducting systems. The material also has the advantageous properties characteristic of polyamide 12. The low water absorption leads to good dimensional stability of components in changing ambient humidity, and the other properties also remain virtually unchanged. VESTAMID® LX9117 BK is supplied as cylindrical granules, ready for processing, in moisture-proof bags. Our technical experts would appreciate to give you support regarding the special requirements for the processing of VESTAMID® LX9117 BK. Pigmentation may affect values. Inside the original and undamaged packaging, the product has a shelf life of at least 2 years when stored in dry rooms at temperatures not exceeding 30°C. Dry properties listed below Industrial Sector: Automotive and Mobility Processing: Injection molding Delivery form: Pellets, Granules Resistance to: UV / light / weathering, Oil / fuels Electrical: Conductive Additives: Glass fibers, Release agent Applications: Quick-connectors Processing: Casting Special Characteristics: Semi-crystalline, Light-stabilized, U.V. stabilized, High heat resistant, Medium viscosity, Low warpage / Low shrinkage Color: Black Additives: Release agent, Light stabilizer, Conductive agent, Heat stabilizer Delivery form: Cylindrical pellets Chemical Resistance: Fuel resistance, General chemical resistance Information provided by Evonik.
