BASF ULTRAMID A3WG10 HOT Sale P66 Resin

BASF ULTRAMID A3WG10 PA66 is a highly specialized engineering thermoplastic, representing the pinnacle of glass fiber reinforcement in the ULTRAMID product line.

Physical Properties

  • Density: As per ISO 1183, the material has a density of 1.56 g/cc (0.0564 lb/in³), which gives an indication of its mass per unit volume.
  • Moisture Absorption at Equilibrium: Under the conditions of 23°C and 50% relative humidity (RH) as per ISO 62, the material shows a moisture absorption ranging from 1.0 to 1.4%, showing its equilibrium water-holding capacity.
  • Water Absorption at Saturation: According to ISO 62, the material can absorb between 3.7 and 4.3% water at saturation, reflecting its maximum moisture uptake potential.
  • Viscosity Measurement: The viscosity measurement of the material is 130 as determined by ISO 307, related to the internal friction and flow resistance of the material.
  • Linear Mold Shrinkage: With a value of 0.0045 cm/cm (0.0045 in/in) under restricted conditions, this property is crucial for predicting dimensional changes during the molding process.
  • Melt Flow: As per ISO 1133, at a temperature of 275 °C (527 °F) with a load of 5.00 kg (11.0 lb), the melt flow rate of the material is 31.2 g/10 min, indicating its fluidity in the molten state.

Polymer Properties:

  1. Base Material: Polyamide 66 (PA66)
  2. Reinforcement: 50% Short Glass Fiber
  3. Modification Features:
    • High – level rigidity and strength for heavy – duty applications.
