PA 6 / Nylon 6 is a synthetic thermoplastic linear polyamide with many other names such as Polycaprolactam, Polyamide 6 and etc.
It is commonly used in manufacturing industry because of its excellent properties:
- high strength and stiffness at high temperature
- good impact strength, even at low temperature
- very good flow for easy processing
- good abrasion and wear resistance
- excellent fuel and oil resistance
- good fatigue resistance
- excellent surface appearance and good processability
- good electrical insulating properties
- environmentally friendly, 100% recyclable
When application require lower water absorption, better low-temperature impact toughness and better dimensional stability, the most common method is to add glass fiber (GF) to modify PA 6. When PA 6 is reinforced with glass fibers (short or long), their stiffness can compete with metals, this is why PA 6+GF products are often considered in metal replacement projects.
To use Glass fiber reinforced PA 6, the most important consideration is the ratio of Glass fiber added. Higher the Glass fiber content, number of Glass fiber per unit area will be increased and hence a thinner PA6 matrix between Glass fiber. This change the mechanical properties such as impact toughness, tensile strength and bending strength of the Glass fibre reinforced PA6 composites.
