Description

Material Notes:
Amodel® A-4145 HH is a 45% glass fiber reinforced heat stabilized grade of polyphthalamide (PPA) that has been designed to provide outstanding property retention to thermal oxidative degradation at temperatures of 230°C. Other features are fast cycling and hot water moldability. This product is particularly suitable to air induction applications within downsized automotive engines such as air induction charge air cooling and exhaust gas recirculation. Features: Fast Molding Cycle; Good Chemical Resistance; Good Creep Resistance; Good Dimensional Stability; Good Stiffness; Heat Stabilized; High Heat Resistance; High Strength; Hot Water Moldability; Laser Weldable; Low Moisture Absorption; LubricatedUses: Automotive Applications; Automotive Under the Hood; Metal ReplacementInjection Molding Notes: Amodel® compounds are shipped in moisture-resistant packages at moisture levels according to specifications. Sealed, undamaged bags should be preferably stored in a dry room at a maximum temperature of 50°C (122°F) and should be protected from possible damage. If only a portion of a package is used, the remaining material should be transferred into a sealable container. It is recommended that Amodel® resins be dried prior to molding.Information provided by Solvay Specialty Polymers.
