Description

DuPont™ Zytel® LCPA long chain polyamide resins provide an innovative and growing portfolio of flexible polymers with excellent thermal, chemical, and hydrolysis resistance. The diverse selection of Zytel® LCPA grades is targeted for a range of performance characteristics, balancing temperature resistance, flexibility and low permeation.Zytel® 157HSL BK010 is a heat stabilized, weatherable, lubricated polyamide 612 resin that is suitable for molding and extrusion applications.

Equivalent Materials

This material data has been provided by Matmatch.

"Typical" values were obtained via a literature search. "Predicted" values were imputed via artificial intelligence technology. While we have placed significant efforts in ensuring data accuracy, "typical" and "predicted" data should be considered indicative and verified by appropriate material testing. Please do contact us if additional information on the the predicted data method is required.
All metrics apply to room temperature unless otherwise stated. SI units used unless otherwise stated.
Equivalent standards are similar to one or more standards provided by the supplier. Some equivalent standards may be stricter whereas others may be outside the bounds of the original standard.
