Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) Amodel® A-4133 L Polyphthalamide (PPA), Dry  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyphthalamide (PPA); Polyphthalamide (PPA), 30% Glass Fiber Reinforced

Material Notes: Amodel A-4133L polyphthalamide (PPA) is a 33% glass reinforced resin designed to offer high crystallinity when molded in water-cooled molds. Key properties include high heat resistance, reduced outgassing and high strength over broad temperature range. It also exhibits low moisture absorption, excellent chemical resistance and excellent electrical properties. Amodel A-4133 L resin can be used in a variety of automotive electrical and electronic applications. These include connectors, sockets, switches, sensors. It is also a good choice for under-hood enclosures that protect critical control systems such as anti-lock brakes, traction control, steering, electronic engine control, transmission and chassis control units. Its rapid crystallization rate and high flow can result in shorter cycles, thereby enhancing molding productivity and lowering costs. - Black: A-4133 L BK 324 - Natural: A-4133 L NT

Injection Notes: Injection Rate: 3 to 4 in/sec Holding Pressure: 50% of injection pressure
