Details

Stanyl® PA46 is the first high-temperature polyamide and the only aliphatic polyamide in its class, making it an ideal choice for windshield wiper actuators. The polymers fit in the crystal in multiple ways, giving rise to high crystallization speeds and high crystallinity. This combination makes it ideal for high-temperature applications since it comes with a melting temperature of 295° C.
