Nylon material knowledge

Polyamide, commonly known as nylon, is a thermoplastic resin with repeating amide groups (NHCO) in the main chain of the molecule. It covers aliphatic PA, aliphatic-aromatic PA and aromatic PA, among which, aliphatic PA has many types, large production volume and is widely used, and its name is determined by the detailed number of carbon atoms of synthetic monomers. The important types of nylon are nylon 6 and nylon 66, which occupy the absolute dominant position, followed by nylon 11, nylon 12, nylon 610, nylon 612, nylon 1010, nylon 46, nylon 7, nylon 9, nylon 13, new types of nylon 6I, nylon 9T, and special nylon MXD6 (barrier resin), etc. The number of modified types of nylon is numerous, such as reinforced nylon, monomer There are many kinds of nylon modifications, such as reinforced nylon, monomeric nylon (MC nylon), reflective injection molding (RIM) nylon, aromatic nylon, transparent nylon, high impact (super tough) nylon, electroplated nylon, electrically conductive nylon, static discharge nylon, flame retardant nylon, nylon blends with other polymers and alloys, etc., to meet different requirements and are used throughout the world as traditional substitutes for metal, wood, etc.
