Cable Ties and Fixings
2022-07-26
■ Polyamides are among the most important thermoplastic synthetic materials. Thermoplastics can be reshaped by heating as often as required without undergoing chemical decomposition or other negative changes. This makes polyamide ideal for processing via injection moulding into high quality products. About 90 % of cable ties and fixings from HellermannTyton are made from this material. Polyamide is also known under the brand name of Nylon®, which was introduced by the Dupont company.
■ The inner structure of polyamide displays a partial order of polymer chains, i.e. polyamides are partially crystalline. Due to the tighter packing of the individual molecular chains polyamide only has limited transparency to light. The plastic is therefore described as translucent.
■ Each base unit contains 6 carbon atoms (C). Hence the name PA6
