| 33% glass fiber, glycol resistant, heat stabilized, lubricated Amodel® A-1933 HSL is a 33% glass reinforced grade of polyphthalamide (PPA) resin. This grade was developed specifically for improved performance in a 50/50 ethylene glycol and water environment. This material was tested using the aggressive automotive coolant system, ethylene glycol with organic acid stabilizer, at 130°C (266°F). It exceeds the performance required by the automotive industry for polymeric materials exposed to high-temperature antifreeze solutions. Potential applications include a variety of automotive components such as thermostat housings, heater core endcaps, heater hose connectors, and water inlets, outlets, and valves. - Black: A-1933 HSL BK 328 Applications: Automotive Applications; Automotive Under the Hood; Housings; Valves/Valve Parts Features: Antifreeze Resistant; Chemical Resistant; Creep Resistant; Good Dimensional Stability; Good Glycol Resistance; Good Stiffness; High Heat Resistance; High Strength; Lubricated Injection notes: Mold Temperature:
- Higher tool temperatures might be required for thin wall sections
Storage:
- Amodel® compounds are shipped in moisture-resistant packages at moisture levels according to specifications. Sealed, undamaged bags should be preferably stored in a dry room at a maximum temperature of 50°C (122°F) and should be protected from possible damage. If only a portion of a package is used, the remaining material should be transferred into a sealable container. It is recommended that Amodel® resins be dried prior to molding following the recommendations found in this datasheet and/or in the Amodel® processing guide.
