Cast Nylon 6, a plastic of high molecular weight, is produced through an anionic polymerization of caprolactam. During the pressureless casting process the monomeric caprolactam melt is poured into the mold and directly polymerized by a specific chemical reaction and then forms a semi-finished product or molding. Addonyl® 8112 is used in combination with the catalyst Addonyl® Kat NL and the activator Addonyl® 8120 during the production of Cast Nylon (PA-6 G). Along with other procuts from the Addonyl® series users will be able to combine various properties and tailor materials specifically to requirements. Addonyl® 8112 is a liquid triamin and is used during polymerization. Addonyl® 8112 modifies the low-temperature impact strength of PA-6 G. Use: The reactivity of the polymerizing melt is influenced by various factors. If higher concentrations of Addonyl® 8112 are used, problems with the polymerization may occur. Thus, the concentration of the activator and the catalyst should be adjusted to the applied formula. Information provided by Lanxess. |
