Grilamid® L 16 Natural

Grilamid® L 16 Natural by EMS-Grivory (EMS Group) is a nucleated, low viscosity, heat and UV stabilized polyamide 12 (PA 12) grade. Is formed by the polymerisation of laurolactam (lactam 12, obtained from the basic raw material butadiene), a ring-shaped, long-chain monomer with 12 carbon atoms. The modification with a crystallization regulator causes a quickly freeze and a fine, crystalline structure. Exhibits low water absorption, excellent dimensional stability, high resistance to chemicals, hydrolysis, heat and weathering. Possesses lowest density among all polyamides, high impact strength down to -40°C and easy processability. Shows good flowability and de-molding. Grilamid® L 16 Natural is suitable for processing by injection molding. Used in electrical equipment, connectors, housewares & consumer good applications like hydraulics & pneumatics, in engineering tools and sports & leisure. Complies with REACH, RoHS and WEEE.
