PA6GF20

Polyamide Granules PA6GF20 are based on PA6 reinforced with 20% chopped alkali-free glass fiber, with GF standing for Glass Fiber. This is a general-purpose modified engineering plastic designed for injection molding, available in two main grades: natural (semi-translucent milky white) and black. Custom modifications, including virgin or recycled material, enhanced heat resistance, impact modification, and flame retardancy, are available upon request to meet different processing and application requirements.

Use Cases of Polyamide Granules

  • Automotive Industry: Polyamide Granules are used to manufacture small engine-related brackets, door lock assemblies, air conditioning ducts, fuel pump housings, wiring harness connectors, and instrument panel frames, where good strength and dimensional stability are required.

  • Electronics and Electrical Appliances: Power outlets, terminal blocks, coil frames, switch housings, circuit breaker bases, and power tool housings.

  • General Machinery: Small gears, bearing housings, pump body components, sprockets, instrument housings, and wear-resistant small transmission parts.

  • Others: Bathroom fixtures, load-bearing furniture components, and small outdoor hardware and plastic structural parts.

Core Characteristics of Polyamide Granules

  • High rigidity + low deformation: Glass fiber forms a skeleton, significantly reducing thermal expansion and contraction, making it suitable for precision structural parts;

  • Enhanced Heat Resistance: Heat resistance is increased by nearly 80°C compared to pure PA6, making it suitable for components operating in high-temperature environments;

  • Stable Molding: Modified coupling process results in minimal fiber floating and easy injection molding, enabling high-volume mass production;

  • Optional Modifications: Heat-resistant, impact-modified and cold-resistant, UL94-V0 flame-retardant, and low-warpage specialty grades.

Processing Recommendations

  • Molding Process: Injection molding is preferred

  • Barrel Temperature: 240–270°C

  • Mold Temperature: 70–90°C

It is recommended to dry the raw material at 80–100°C for 4–6 hours to remove moisture and prevent bubbles and silver streaks in the finished product.
