EMS-Grivory Grilon® RVZ-15H.1 Nylon 6, 15% Glass Fiber Filled, Dry As Molded
Subcategory: Filled/Reinforced Thermoplastic; Nylon; Nylon 6; Polymer; Thermoplastic
Material Notes: Grilon RVZ-15H.1 Black 9697 is an extrusion blow moldable, 15% glass fiber reinforced, high viscosity, heat stabilized polyamide 6 that exhibits high impact strength even at low temperatures. Due to its very high melt strength, Grilon RVZ-15H.1 is particularly well suited for the production of large extrusion blow molded articles. It can easily be processed on conventional and 3D machines. Grilon RVZ-15H.1 is suitable for technical articles of all kinds, especially automotive applications. Examples of possible applications include; Air ducts for turbo-chargers, Oil filler pipes, Air ducts, Fuel and oil containers and Resonators. Information provided by EMS-Grivory
