Seven polyamide grades — each engineered for a distinct set of performance requirements.
Our competitive advantage is the ability to produce polymer composite materials with characteristics precisely tuned to your needs. In every composite system, polyamide acts as the matrix that gives the part its toughness and chemical resistance, while the filler — glass fibre, carbon fibre or mineral — delivers stiffness, dimensional stability or conductivity.
All our grades are optimised for standard thermoplastic processing: injection moulding, extrusion and blow moulding. End markets include automotive, electrical & electronics, oil & gas, construction, medical devices, consumer goods and sports equipment.
Key properties at a glance — all grades based on PA6 or PA66 base resin.
| Grade | Base | Key filler | Strength | Stiffness | Impact | Temp. range | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Natural PA | PA6/66 | None | ●●○ | ●●○ | ●●○ | -30 / +100°C | General purpose, food contact |
| Glass-filled | PA6/66 | GF 15–30% | ●●● | ●●● | ●●○ | -30 / +200°C | Structural metal replacement |
| Carbon-filled | PA6/66 | CF 10–30% | ●●● | ●●● | ●○○ | -30 / +215°C | Lightweight structural, ESD |
| Mineral-filled | PA6/66 | Talc/kaolin | ●●○ | ●●○ | ●●○ | -30 / +110°C | Housings, flat panels |
| Dyed PA | PA6/66 | Pigment | ●●○ | ●●○ | ●●○ | -30 / +100°C | Brand colour, identification |
| Impact-modified | PA6/66 | EPDM rubber | ●○○ | ●○○ | ●●● | -40 / +100°C | Shock loads, drop resistance |
| Frost-resistant | PA6/66 | Plasticiser | ●●○ | ●●○ | ●●● | -60 / +140°C | Cold-climate outdoor use |
● = good ●● = very good ●●● = excellent
Resistant to fuels, oils, greases and organic solvents. PA is routinely used in under-hood automotive parts, hydraulic systems and chemical processing equipment.
Impact-modified grades maintain toughness down to -40°C. Standard grades offer excellent notched impact strength suitable for structural components.
Continuous-use temperature up to 120°C for unfilled PA6; glass-filled PA66 grades can exceed 200°C HDT under load — enabling demanding thermal applications.
Polyamide shows outstanding resistance to cyclic loading and vibration fatigue, making it ideal for gears, bearings, housings and other dynamically loaded parts.
