(1) Properties value for the above resins were extracted from Prospector and various polymer suppliers’ brochures except those of the moisture absorption and of glass transition temperatures, which were generated by DuPont, Inc. The values reported for Zytel® HTN resins are preliminary and are subjected to change as additional data are developed on subsequent lots.
Zytel® HTN51G35HSL Retains Tensile Strength Well at Mid-Range Temperatures
Zytel® HTN Parts Retain Rigidity Well at Elevated Temperatures, Thanks To Their Higher Glass Transition Temperatures
Zytel® HTN Parts Offer High Tensile Strength Under Humid Conditions, Especially With HTN51G35HSL
Zytel® HTN Parts Provide Excellent Rigidity Under Humid Conditions, Particularly With HTN51G35HSL
Zytel® HTN Has Better Chemical Resistance To Automotive Fluids Than PA66 And PPA, and Can Withstand A More Hostile Environment
Zytel® HTN Glycol Resistant Grades Provide Opportunities to Replace Metal, Thermosets in Applications That Currently Cannot Be Handled With Nylon 66
Zytel® HTN Provides Dimensional Stability at Elevated Temperatures Due to Low Thermal Expansion
