NYLON PA 6
 “
Nylon is a polyamide with excellent
qualities, such as hardness, shock
absorption, noise, vibration, wear
resistance, abrasion resistance. It is
capable of withstanding dynamic
loads, is quite resistant to heat and
has good resistance against some
chemical materials…

  Generated from the polycondensation of
caprolactam. [CH2(CH2)4NHCO],
 The monomer of nylon , can be produced
POLYMERIZATION by fermentation of glucosa through an
PROCESS intermediate and, finally, breaking its ring
structure to polynerize and obtain the final
compound.

4
◦ Nylon 6 is obtained by
heating caprolactam at
about 250 ° C in the
presence of
approximately 5-10%
water. Carbonyl oxygen
takes one of the
hydrogen atoms from
water.

 NYLON PROPERTIES
 Mechanical resistance, hardness, rigidity and
good toughness.
 Strong mechanical damping capacity.
 Resistance to fatigue and wear.
 Good sliding properties.
 High moisture absorption.
 They are used as plastic materials in which
properties such as high toughness, stiffness
or good abrasion are required.
 They can work without lubrication, they are
silent.
 Resistance to againg due to high tempertures
and for prolonged periods of time.
