Envalior Durethan AKV 50 H3.0 PA66 Resin
Envalior Durethan AKV 50 H3.0 is a 50% glass-reinforced, heat-aging-stabilized PA66 for maximum-strength automotive, industrial, and military applications.
Physical Properties
- Bulk Density: Per ISO 60, the bulk density is 0.700 g/cc (0.0253 lb/in³), indicating the material’s density in loose form before compression or molding.
- Density: Per ISO 1183, density is 1.57 g/cc (0.0567 lb/in³), matching H2.0 with 50% glass fibers and superior heat-aging stability.
- Linear Mold Shrinkage (Flow): At 300°C/80°C per ISO 294-4, flow shrinkage is 0.0037 cm/cm (0.0037 in/in), slightly higher than H2.0 due to processing variables.
- Linear Mold Shrinkage (Transverse): At 300°C/80°C per ISO 294-4, transverse shrinkage is 0.0093 cm/cm (0.0093 in/in), consistent with high fiber orientation effects.
Polymer Properties:
- Base Material: Polyamide 66 (PA66)
- Reinforcement: 50% Glass Fiber
- Modification Features:
- 50% glass fiber for maximum mechanical performance.
- Heat-stabilized for prolonged high-temperature use.
- Wear-resistant for heavy-load, high-motion applications.
Applications:
The combination of extreme stiffness, high strength, and excellent heat resistance makes Durethan AKV50H3.0 the go-to material for high-performance structural components.
Its applications often involve replacing traditional materials like metal or thermosets.
- Automotive: It is used for highly stressed engine and transmission components, such as engine mounts, gearbox housings, structural brackets, and chassis components.
- Industrial Engineering: Due to its superior mechanical properties, it is used for structural parts in machinery, high-load gears, and bearing cages.
- Aerospace: In certain non-critical applications, this material can be used for interior structural brackets and components where weight reduction is essential without compromising strength.
- Heavy-Duty Equipment: It is a perfect choice for components in agricultural and construction machinery that need to be strong, durable, and resistant to harsh environments.
