Vydyne® R543H

Vydyne R543H is general-purpose, 43% glass-fiber reinforced PA66 resin. Available in natural, it is an injection-molding grade resin that is lubricated for machine feed, flow and mold release.

Glass-reinforced Vydyne resins provide a higher heat distortion temperature, better resistance to creep, higher impact and better dimensional stability when compared with unreinforced PA66. These products have good chemical resistance to a broad range of chemicals, including many aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons found in most solvents, gasoline, hydraulic fluids, greases and machine oils.

Vydyne R543H resin has tensile strength and modulus properties just below aluminum and zinc and can replace these metals in numerous applications due to an excellent balance of properties. Reduction in production costs, energy consumption and part weight are key advantages of Vydyne glass-reinforced PA66 resins over aluminum and/ or zinc die-cast parts.

Vydyne R543H is formulated to minimize the oxidative and thermal degradation of the PA66 polymer when exposed to elevated temperatures for extended periods of time. Vydyne R543H provides improved retention of physical properties under exposure to long-term heat. The continuous operating use temperature is 275° F, with short-term peak temperatures as high as 475° F.
