Key Advantages of PA66 GF20 FR(V0)
Cost-Effective Entry into Reinforced FR:
Provides a measurable improvement in stiffness over non-reinforced FR grades at a minimal cost premium, offering the first step up for performance-sensitive designs.
Enhanced Thermal & Dimensional Stability:
The added glass fibers increase heat deflection temperature and reduce warpage, improving part reliability in consistently warm operating conditions.
Balanced Performance for Electronic Components:
Delivers the necessary combination of flame retardancy, improved rigidity, and good flow to reliably manufacture a wide range of sockets, bobbins, and small housings.
Maintained Chemical Resistance:
Retains the good resistance of the PA66 base resin to oils and solvents, suitable for light industrial and automotive interior applications.
