On October 25, 2021, Avient introduced Edgetek™ toughened polyphthalamide (PPA) formulation, which offers better thermal properties and low hygroscopicity compared to nylon 66 (PA66) for demanding applications application
.
The new impact-modified PPA materials are formulated in filled and unfilled grades for excellent structural integrity and impact resistance at elevated temperatures
.
These thermally stable formulations maintain tensile strength and tensile elongation properties when subjected to long-term heat aging tests up to 120°C
.
They also help improve durability and long-term performance due to the slower rate of moisture absorption than PA66
.
Enhanced chemical resistance makes Edgetek Toughened PPA ideal for a range of rigid applications such as cooling systems, housings, fuel pumps or structural components
.
"This high-performance formulation provides an effective solution for durable structural applications that need to withstand extreme environments," said Matt Mitchell, Global Marketing Director, Specialty Engineered Materials, Avient Corporation
.
"Our combination of materials science and innovation expands designers' ability to solve application challenges.
