Combining mineral to glass reinforced nylon 66 reduces cost, improves dimensional stability and reduces warpage when compared to standard glass filled nylons while maintaining the desired mechanical properties which include high modulus, strength and HDT.
20 - 50% combined loadings are typically used in various injection molding grades for applications requiring excellent chemical and heat resistance. The addition of mineral to glass filled nylon reduces differential shrinkage because the mineral disrupts the orientation of the glass fiber resulting in more uniform shrinkage.
