high-viscosity
PA6 and PBT high vicosity compounds
NUREL offers a broad range of high-viscosity grades of polyamide 6 (PA6) and polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) specifically formulated for various extrusion applications. These polymer grades are well-suited for the production of tubes, tanks, conduits, cable coatings, profiles, and filaments.
The extensive selection of high-viscosity grades allows NUREL to incorporate additional properties into their products, enhancing thermal protection, ultraviolet radiation resistance, and fire protection. This ensures that the materials meet the specific requirements of each application and deliver optimal performance in challenging environments.
Promyde® polyamide 6 high viscosity grades for extrusion
NUREL’s expertise positions it as a reliable supplier of polyamide 6 in the global extrusion market. Its presence spans multiple segments, including high tenacity yarns, profiles, pipes, extrusion blow molding, and cable jacketing. The modification of polymer chains during polymerization, along with the unique additive packages offered, forms our extensive Promyde extrusion portfolio.
Promyde PA6 high viscosity range, includes products with viscosities of up to 5.0, making them particularly suitable for blow molding applications such as the production of large tanks and containers. These products guarantee excellent mechanical strength and durability, meeting the demanding requirements for strength and performance.
Promyde for extrusion range offers various solutions for different applications, ranging from relative viscosities of 3.0 to 5.0. It includes impact-modified PA, glass fiber-reinforced grades, flame retardant formulations, and high-flexibility developments. Additionally, UV protection and heat stabilizers are available to enhance the lifespan of outdoor applications like electrical conduits.
Proxylene high viscosity PBT for optical fiber cable
NUREL introduces a new portfolio of high-viscosity unreinforced PBT grades, specifically designed for extrusion applications. This portfolio includes grades with improved hydrolysis resistance.
One of the primary applications for high-viscosity PBT grades is the manufacturing of optical fibers using extrusion processes. PBT Proxylene extrusion grades offer excellent thermal stability, low attenuation and high transmission properties, making them an ideal material for producing high quality optical fibers used in telecommunications and data transmission.
Pipes and tubes produced with Proxylene PBT HR grades benefit from good chemical resistance, dimensional stability and mechanical strength. They also exhibit exceptional resistance to damage caused by water at high temperatures. These characteristics of PBT Proxylene enable the production of durable and reliable pipes used in industries such as plumbing, irrigation and automotive fluid systems.
