NYRIM® - Properties

The stiffness / toughness balance of the elastomeric-modified polyamide 6 block copolymer offers outstanding impact strength, excellent wear resistance and repetitive load (fatigue) endurance.

NYRIM® is customer specific  with elastomer contents of 7% (NYRIM® 700) up to 40% (NYRIM® 4000). Above it can be selectively reinforced with glass fibers resp. glass mats or filled with minerals.

Advantages

  • Outstanding stiffness / toughness balance
  • Exceptional repetitive load endurance (fatigue resistance)
  • Excellent impact resistance
  • Excellent abrasion resistance
  • Superior mechanical properties at low temperatures (down to -40°C)
  • Consistency of mechanical properties from -40°C to 140°C, intermittently used at 180°C
  • High chemical resistance
  • Colourable and paintable
  • Vulcanisation of rubber directly on NYRIM® is possible
  • Recyclable
