| Description |
Polyamide 11, abbreviated PA11, is a high performance thermoplastic polymer that is produced from castor seeds, thus bio-based but not bio-degredable. Despite the plant of origin being toxic to humans, Polyamide 11 is physiologically harmless and tissue-friendly. |
| Synonyms |
PA11 |
| Density |
abt. 1.04 g/cm³ |
| Application |
Polyamide 11 is being used in various fields such as transport, tubes, medical, electronics as well as industrial applications. This wide range of applications is thanks to its excellent properties in terms of chemical as well as thermal resistance, dimensional stability as well as low density. |
| Feature |
Low density: With a density of abt. 1.04 g/cm³, Polyamide 11 is less dense than for example Polyamide 6 or Polyamide 66, meaning PA11 is lighter.
Low friction coefficient: Low water absorption: Polyamide 11 absorbs less water in comparison with PA6 or PA66, thus also providing a better dimensional stability
Scuff resistance
Chemical resistance: Polyamide 11 has a good to excellent chemical resistance to fuels, oils, water, gases, solvents and industrial fluids |
| Type |
monofilament |
