PA (Nylon)
Polyamide - PA6 / PA66
PA6 and PA66 are semi-crystalline engineering thermoplastics known for high mechanical strength, excellent wear resistance, good chemical resistance, and low friction coefficient. PA66 offers higher strength and heat resistance, while PA6 provides better impact toughness. Both are widely used in automotive, industrial, and consumer applications.
