PA - Polyamides | Materials

The name "nylons" refers to the group of plastics known as polyamides. Nylon is used in the production of film and fiber, but is also available as a moulding compound. There are many types of nylon available. The material is available as a homopolymer, co-polymer or reinforced. Nylons may also be blended with other engineering plastics to improve certain aspects of performance. Nylon is well suited for processing via injection moulding, rotational moulding, casting or extrusion into film or fiber.
