Evonik Vestamid® Terra HS 16 natural Nylon 610 (discontinued **)
Categories:	Polymer; Renewable/Recycled Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA); Nylon 610 (PA610)
Material Notes:	VESTAMID Terra HS16 natural color is a medium-viscosity PA 610 basic polymer for monofilaments and bristles with high recovery for paint brushes and tooth brushes. The carbonamide groups (-CO-NH-) of the polyamides form hydrogen bridge bonds between the chains of the macromolecules, thereby substantially promoting crystallinity and increasing their strength, melting point, resistance to chemicals and water absorption. This is characteristic of all semicrystalline polyamides . Because of its semi-crystalline morphology VESTAMID Terra HS16 natural color provides a high impact strength, excellent chemical resistance (e.g. against greases, oils, alkalis and saline solutions), a low coefficient of friction and high abrasion resistance. Properties of VESTAMID Terra HS16 natural color vary little with changing humidity due to their low moisture absorption. VESTAMID Terra HS16 natural color is supplied as cylindrical granules, ready for processing, in moisture-proof bags. VESTAMID® Terra HS is the polycondensation product of 1,6-hexamethylene diamine (H) and 1,10-decanedioic acid (sebacic acid—S). Because sebacic acid is extracted from castor oil, VESTAMID® Terra HS is based on natural, renewable resources up to 62%.
