Zytel® RS renewably sourced nylon resin

Castor bean plantThe Zytel® RS product family comprises all products based on PA1010 and PA610, including their copolymers and their alloys with other polymers. PA1010 contains 100% of renewably sourced content while PA610 contains 63%. The renewable content comes from sebacic acid which is derived from castor oil. Castor oil is one of the most versatile, non food competing natural products.


Currently there are two product lines available from Engineering Polymers:

Zytel® RS LC 
Zytel® RS Long Chain nylons extend the range of stiffness and toughness while also providing superior chemical and hydrolysis resistance.  Consider for extrusion applications typically used in the  automotive and oil & gas industries.
