There are many types of PA (nylon), as shown above, there are at least 11 types of nylon classified structurally. Among them, PA610 is favoured by material engineers for automobiles, electrical appliances, etc. due to its lower water absorption than PA6 and PA66 and better heat resistance than PA11 and PA12.
PA6.10 (nylon-610), also known as polyamide-610, i.e., polyacetylhexanediamine. It is translucent milky white. Its strength is between nylon-6 and nylon-66. It has small specific gravity, low crystallinity, low impact on water and humidity, good dimensional stability, and can be self-extinguishing. It is mainly used in precision plastic fittings, oil pipelines, containers, ropes, conveyor belts, bearings, gaskets, insulating materials and instrument housings in electrical and electronic.
PA6.10 is a polymer used in high-tech products with a low environmental impact. Part of its raw material is derived from plants, which makes it more environmentally friendly than other nylons; it is believed that PA6.10 will be used more and more as fossil raw materials become scarce.
In terms of performance, PA6.10's moisture absorption and saturated water absorption are significantly better than PA6 and PA66, and its heat resistance is better than PA11 and PA12. Generally speaking, PA6.10 has stable comprehensive performance among PA series. It has a great advantage in the field where water absorption and heat resistance are required.
