The name VESTAMID® stands for an entire range of polyamides with custom tailored properties. Evonik obtains the desired characteristics in the materials by chemical modification of the base polymer, or physical modification—by incorporation of glass fibers, Teflon, or graphite, for example—or a combination of both. In this way Evonik is able to meet virtually any customer requirement with an extremely wide range of VESTAMID® grades.

Polyamides Offer an Excellent Price-Performance Ratio

In general, long-chain semicrystalline polyamides absorb little water, are resistant to polar and nonpolar solvents, have a low tendency to creep and high impact strength, and can be used over a wide temperature range between extremly cold and high temperature. Hardly any other polymer material in this price category offers such an excellent property profile.

Customized for Versatile Applications Areas

VESTAMID® has proven its worth in a number of application fields over many years and its many variants are used mainly for durable and technically sophisticated applications. Evonik's specialty polyamides include the following:

  • VESTAMID® L series: Polyamides 12 (PA 12) based on laurolactam

  • VESTAMID® D series: Polyamides 612 (PA 612) based on hexamethylendiamine and decanedioic acid

  • VESTAMID® E series: Polyamides 12 elastomers (PEBA) based on laurolactam and polyether diols ((polyether block amides)

  • VESTAMID® Terra: Polyamides based on renewable raw materials

  • VESTAMID® Care: Polyamides for medical applications

  • VESTAMID® NRG: Polyamides for oil and gas applications

How are Graphene Batteries Made?

The primary distinction between graphene-based batteries and solid-state batteries lies in the composition of either electrode. Although the cathode is commonly changed, carbon allotropes can also be employed in fabricating anodes.
