Nylon Ertalon 4.6 – Properties and Applications of Nylon Ertalon 4.6

Compared with the conventional nylons, Nylon Ertalon 4.6 (STANYL*) features a better retention of stiffness and creep resistance over a wide range of temperatures as well as a superior heat ageing resistance. Therefore, applications for Nylon Ertalon 4.6 are situated in the "higher temperature area" (80-150°C) where stiffness, creep resistance, heat ageing resistance, fatigue strength and wear resistance of PA 6, PA 66, POM and PETP fall short.
