Solvay Specialty Polymers Amodel® DW-1140 Polyphthalamide (PPA), 40% Glass Fiber

Amodel® DW-1140 is a 40% glass-fiber-reinforced resin designed for high strength and stiffness and improved hydrolytic stability. This material has low moisture absorption and a low coefficient of thermal expansion, which means excellent dimensional stability. Creep resistance is also exceptional.Features: Chlorine Resistant; Good Chemical Resistance; Good Creep Resistance; Good Dimensional Stability; High Stiffness; High Strength; High Temperature Strength; Low Moisture AbsorptionUses: Appliances; Consumer Applications; Filters; Housings; Industrial Applications; Plumbing Parts; Pump Parts; Valves/Valve PartsInjection Molding Notes: Amodel® compounds are shipped in moisture-resistant packages at moisture levels according to specifications. Sealed, undamaged bags should be preferably stored in a dry room at a maximum temperature of 50°C (122°F) and should be protected from possible damage. If only a portion of a package is used, the remaining material should be transferred into a sealable container. It is recommended that Amodel® resins be dried prior to molding.Additional Properties: Flexural Strain at Break - ISO 178 (23°C): 2.5 %Information provided by Solvay Specialty Polymers.
