VESTAMID® CW1412 NC is a heat- and light- stabilized polyamide 12 compound for injection molding and for extrusion wire insulation.
Properties of compounds based on PA12 vary little with changing humidity due to low moisture absorption. Parts made of this semi-crystalline material are characterized by exceptional impact strength, low coefficient of friction and good chemical resistance.
Typical Applications
- Cable and wire coating / jacketing
- Fiber optic cable
- Tube and hose
- Electrical and electronical
Benefits at a glance
- Low water absorption
- Very high chemical resistance (e.g. fuels, oils)
- High hydrolysis resistance
- Excellent cold impact performance
- High hardness & abrasion resistance of PA12 provides excellent protection against rodent attacks
- Halogen and phosphorous free
