Celanese Zytel E51HSB PA66 Resin

Celanese Zytel E51HSB PA66 is an unreinforced, heat-stabilized, high-molecular-weight polyamide 66 (Nylon 66) resin.

Physical Properties

  • Density: Measured using injection-molded samples in accordance with DAM and ISO 1183, the density is 1.14 g/cc (0.0412 lb/in³).
  • Melt Density: At a temperature of 295 °C (563 °F), the melt density is 0.980 g/cc (0.0354 lb/in³).
  • Water Absorption: At a thickness of 2.00 mm (0.0787 in), water absorption is 8.5% (DAM; sim. to ISO 62).
  • Moisture Absorption: At a thickness of 2.00 mm (0.0787 in), moisture absorption is 2.60% (DAM; sim. to ISO 62).
  • Viscosity Number: Determined with 90% formic acid per ISO 307, 1157, 1628, the viscosity number is 310 cm³/g (3.10 dl/g).
  • Linear Mold Shrinkage: For injection-molded plaques, the linear mold shrinkage (flow/transverse) is 0.013 cm/cm (0.013 in/in) per DAM and ISO 294-4, 2577.

Polymer Properties:

  • Base Material: Polyamide 66 (PA66)
  • Modification Features:
    • Unreinforced, high-viscosity formulation for improved melt strength.
    • Heat-stabilized to maintain consistency in extrusion and injection molding.
    • Offers excellent processability for large-scale and high-flow components.

Applications:

  1. Industrial: Extruded profiles (e.g., pipes, channels), sheets, and structural tubing used in construction, agriculture, or industrial infrastructure.
  2. Automotive: Large interior panels, bumpers, and exterior trims requiring high flow and impact resistance in vehicle manufacturing.
  3. Packaging: High-temperature resistant films, industrial containers, and pallets for transporting goods in demanding logistics environments.
