Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) Amodel® A-8940 HS PPA, 40% glass fiber
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyphthalamide (PPA); Polyphthalamide (PPA), 40% Glass Fiber Reinforced
Material Notes:	40% glass fiber, heat stabilized, very high tensile strength Amodel® A-8940 HS is a 40% glass-fiber-reinforced, heat-stabilized polyphthalamide (PPA) with a high heat deflection temperature and very high tensile strength. Excellent creep resistance and low moisture absorption are also characteristic of this resin. - Black: A-8940 HS BK 328 - Natural: A-8940 HS NT Applications: Appliances; Automotive Applications; Automotive Electronics; Connectors; Consumer Applications; Housings; Industrial Applications; Machine/Mechanical Parts; Metal Replacement Features: Chemical Resistant; Creep Resistant; Good Dimensional Stability; Good Stiffness; High Heat Resistance; High Stiffness; High Strength; High Temperature Strength; Low Moisture Absorption 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.
