Description

Material Notes:
Amodel HFZ A-4133 L polyphthalamide (PPA) is a 33% glass-reinforced, hot water moldable resin. Key properties include heat resistance, reduced outgassing and high strength and stiffness over a broad temperature range. It also displays low moisture absorption, excellent chemical resistance and excellent electrical properties. Amodel HFZ A-4133 L resin is ideal for automotive electrical and electronic applications, including connectors, sockets, switches and sensors. It is also a good choice for under-hood enclosures that protect critical control systems such as anti-lock brakes, traction control, steering, electronic engine control, transmission and chassis control units. – Black: HFZ A-4133 L BK 324 – Natural: HFZ A-4133 L NTInjection Notes: Injection Pressure: 3 to 4 in/secInformation provided by Solvay Specialty Polymers.
