AMODEL AT-5001 polyphthalamide resin is a neat ductile material that offers superior retention of properties after humid thermal aging, high impact at low temperature, and better mechanical properties than many unreinforced thermoplastic polyester and nylon resins especially after exposure to humid environments. These materials were specifically designed for automotive electrical and electronic applications such as connectors, sockets, and sensors. Additional applications include fuel systems where both the high elongation/ductility and superior low permeation performance to automotive fuels are needed. They can be processed readily using conventional injection molding equipment and methods. Information provided by Solvay Advanced Polymers |
