Glossary » Materials » Polymers » Polyamide » 30% Glass Reinforced

30% Glass Reinforced PA is a subcategory of Polyamide. The additative is added by weight during the manufacturing process. Its molding pressure ranges from 5 to 15 MPa.
Polyamide, also known as PA, is a thermoplastic polycondensate. Common trade names are Ultramid and Zytel. nylon (PA 46) It has high lubricity and moderate strength. It is tough, inexpensive, but has poor dimensional stability due to water absorption (hygroscopic nature). PA is commonly used to make high-lubricity parts such as bearings, blow moldings molds, and clothing fabrics.
