Rilsan® polyamides are available in a wide range of flexibility, from 1200 MPa for non-plasticized grades to 150 MPa for plasticized grades.
Adding specific fillers (glass fiber, carbon fiber, etc.) enable an increase of modulus up to 8000 MPa. In dry conditions, PA6 and PA6,6 have significantly higher rigidity than Rilsan® polyamides. After moisture pick-up, however, the flex properties of Rilsan® polyamides remain relatively stable. |
