Evonik VESTAMID® LXM8 Nylon 12, 8% Glass Fiber Reinforced
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA); Nylon 12 (PA12); Nylon 12, 20% Glass Fiber Filled
Material Notes:	VESTAMID® LXM8 is a medium-viscosity, glass fiber-reinforced and heat-stabilized polyamide 12 compound with good applicability for sport components such as shoe soles requiring very good fatigue performance and bonding ability to TPUs. Parts made of the semi-crystalline polyamide VESTAMID® LXM8 are characterized by excellent dimensional stability, constantly high impact strength, low coefficient of friction, good chemical resistance at changing ambient humidity, and excellent bonding strength to TPU. VESTAMID® LXM8 is suitable for manufacturing injection molded parts with efficient cycle times. VESTAMID® LXM8 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, Fatigue resistance Electrical: Insulating Additives: Glass fibers Applications: General purpose Special Characteristics: Semi-crystalline, Light-stabilized, U.V. stabilized Color: Natural color Additives: Antioxidant agent, Light stabilizer Delivery form: Cylindrical pellets Information provided by Evonik.
