Specialty Nylon

Specialty Nylon

The Nylene family of specialty nylons takes standard nylon characteristics and enhances them with significant benefits. These enhancements include improved chemical resistance, better thermal stability, increased flexibility, higher tensile strength, and enhanced structural rigidity. This makes modified nylons an excellent choice for replacing metal, providing a lighter alternative that excels in challenging environments such as engine and structural components.

Nylene specializes in creating custom formulations of specialty nylon suitable for injection molding, blow molding, extrusion, and rotational molding processes.

These tailored formulations range from unfilled compositions to those with varying levels of glass and/or mineral reinforcement. Nylene’s specialty nylons are versatile and ideal for applications where specific material properties are crucial for optimal performance.
