Evonik VESTAMID® NRG 2101 YE Nylon 12
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA); Nylon 12 (PA12)
Material Notes:	VESTAMID® NRG 2101 YE is a high molecular grade PA 12 material developed by Evonik. Its superior performance characteristics make it a good choice for expanding the use of thermoplastic piping systems at higher operating pressures and larger diameters to replace metallic piping systems in a safe and cost effective manner. Besides extending the operating pressure limits of thermoplastic piping systems, VESTAMID® NRG 2101 YE offers many of the same benefits, and in most instances more superior performance, as conventional PE piping systems. Tough and durable Corrosion resistant Resistant to heavy hydrocarbons High resistance to Slow Crack Growth and Rapid Crack Propagation Increased installation efficiencies Worry free performance These characteristics make the VESTAMID® NRG 2101 yellow material a good choice when selecting appropriate thermoplastic piping materials in extending gas distribution infrastructure. The manufacturer recommends a processing temperature between 230°C (446°F) and 260°C (500°F) - in some cases up to 280°C (536°F) - during the injection molding and extrusion process. The mold temperature should be within a range of 60°C (140°F) to 100°C (212°F). Drying at 80°C (176°F) for 2 hours to 4 hours before processing is recommended. Polyamide 12 is a high performance thermo-plastic polymer with increased performance characteristics that translates into safe operations over the life of the installed pipe- line. It has a considerable record of safe and proven experience in many demanding applications, including fuel lines in passenger cars, air brake tubing in trucks and off-shore applications. 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.
