Evonik VESTAMID® LXM4 Nylon 12, 4% Glass Fiber Reinforced
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA); Nylon 12 (PA12); Nylon 12, 20% Glass Fiber Filled
Material Notes:	VESTAMID LXM4 is a semi-crystalline, heat- and UV-stabilized compound based on PA12 with a glass fiber content of 4 %. In general, the material is suitable for sport and lifestyle applications and specifically for shoe soles that require good fatigue performance and bonding ability to TPUs. VESTAMID LXM4 only absorbs small amounts of water. Therefore, components made of this material have excellent dimensional accuracy under changing ambient humidity. The material provides a wide processing window in the injection molding process with a high ratio of flow length to wall thickness. The use of colorants can change the property values. VESTAMID® LXM4 is supplied as cylindrical granules ready for processing, in moisture barrier bags. Inside the original and undamaged packaging the product has a shelf life of at least two years when stored in dry rooms at temperatures not exceeding 30°C. Dry properties listed below Industrial Sector: Sports and Lifestyle Processing: Injection molding Delivery form: Pellets, Granules Optics: Translucent Resistance to: Heat (thermal stability), UV / light / weathering Electrical: Insulating Additives: Glass fibers Applications: General purpose Special Characteristics: Semi-crystalline, Light-stabilized, U.V. stabilized Color: Natural color Additives: Light stabilizer, Heat stabilizer Delivery form: Cylindrical pellets Chemical Resistance: General chemical resistance Information provided by Evonik.
