Close Analogs:
Arkema, formed in 2004, was formerly Atofina Chemicals and before that Elf Atochem.

Key Words: PA12; Polyamide 12

Material Notes:
Designation ISO 1874-PA12-P,MLR,12-004

Flexible grade for injection molding. Available color: black. Light stabilized. Mold-release agent.

Good impact strength. Flexibility and dynamic properties. Easy filling of the mold due to its well adapted viscosity. Low shrinkage: include 1% on average for the design of the mold. Good dimensional stability (low moisture absorption).

UL classification: UL94 HB RTI(C) 65/65/65.

Example applications: Cable ties and clips.
