Polyamide 6.6

often abbreviated as PA 6.6, is a thermoplastic polymer and belongs to the polyamide family. It is formed by the condensation polymerization of adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine.
This chemical structure gives PA 6.6 specific properties that make it suitable for various applications. 

Properties of polyamide 6.6:

  • High tensile strength:
    PA 6.6 has a high tensile strength, which makes it suitable for applications with mechanical loads and tensile stresses.

  • Good impact strength:
    The material has good impact resistance, which means that it can absorb shocks and impacts well without breaking.

  • High rigidity:
    PA 6.6 has a high stiffness, which makes it suitable for structural applications in various industries.

  • Temperature resistance:
    It can withstand temperatures up to a certain level, which makes it suitable for applications with elevated temperatures.

  • Chemical resistance:
    PA 6.6 is resistant to many chemicals, which makes it attractive for various industrial environments.

  • Good wear resistance:
    The high abrasion resistance of PA 6.6 makes it suitable for applications where abrasion plays a role, such as in bearing bushes or gear wheels.

  • Low water absorption:
    PA 6.6 only absorbs small amounts of water, which leads to low moisture absorption.

  • Good workability:
    PA 6.6 is easy to process and can be formed using various processing methods such as injection molding, extrusion and compression molding.

Applications of polyamide 6.6:

PA 6.6 is used in various industries for specific applications, including

  • Automotive industry: Parts such as engine mounts, transmission housings, radiator grilles and other structural components.

  • Electrical industry: Insulators, housings for electronic devices, plugs and sockets.

  • Mechanical engineering: Gears, bearings, bushings, brackets and other structural components.

  • Textile industry: Fibers and yarns for the production of textiles.

Due to its balanced mechanical properties and its versatility , PA 6.6 is a frequently used polyamide in various technical applications.
