PA 6 / Nylon 6 is a synthetic thermoplastic linear polyamide with many other names such as Nylon 6, 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
For many applications, PA 6 is modified using co-monomers or stabilizers during polymerization to introduce new chain end or functional groups, which changes the reactivity and chemical properties. This is often done to change the material dye-ability, mechanical properties or flame retardance.
Other information:
CAS Number: 25038-54-4

CompTox Dashboard (EPA): DTXSID6049694
PA 6 can be processed by all common melt processing techniques such as Injection Molding, Extrusion, 3D Printing, Film stretching, Spinning and etc.
Relative Viscosity is one of the most important parameter when choosing PA 6 material for different applications. Generally speaking, high viscosity material is suitable for tube drawing, blow moulding, film blowing processes; medium viscosity material is suitable for direct injection moulding and injection moulding after material modification; low viscosity material is suitable for thin wall product injection moulding.
Moresu MS400 MS400 is a bright nylon 6 raw chip with relative viscosity of 4.0. The nylon produce produce by MS400 has high tensile strength, good air resistance, wide temperature resistance range, good oil resistance and organic solvent resistance.
