New virgin polymers for all segments

The DOMO Nylon & Intermediates division is producing a wide portfolio of polyamide 6 (PA6) virgin resins with applications in engineering plastics, fibres & film extrusion. During this years’ FAKUMA edition, DOMO Nylon & Intermediates is officially launching new PA6 grades in all three segments:

For the engineering plastics business DOMO Nylon & Intermediates shows DOMAMID®H22, a new, ultra-low viscosity polyamide. This high-flow, easy processable virgin polymer is perfectly suited for high filled compounds, and is suitable for long glass fibres in regards to nearly all injection molding applications.

For the fibre business, DOMO Nylon & Intermediates launches DOMAMID®H27 S05 – a modified PA6 for BCF, which achieves 30% lower shrinkage during heat setting compared to average shrinkage in case of using standard PA6.

For film extrusion, a new high viscosity range with DOMAMID®H33, H36 and H40 is now available; either pure or in finished version (lubricated or lubricated and nucleated).
DOMO Chemicals will exhibit its range of products and solutions at Fakuma 2017 in Hall B4 Booth 4216.
