Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) Strator® C-4 Nylon 66 Alloy
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA); Nylon 66 (PA66)

Material Notes: Strator® C-4, a 40% long glass fiber reinforced high-flow PA66 alloy and can easily be processed on most injection molding machines.

Features: High Flow

Injection notes: Pre-drying
- Since polyamides are hygroscopic materials as well as sensitive to moisture during processing, this product should always be pre-dried. At a humidity content above 0.1%, the material will begin to degrade. Recommended drying time is 4 hours at 110°C in dry-air dryer.
Mold temperature
- The mold temperature is a compromise between the optimum properties that can be obtained from high crystallization and cycle time. Optimum surface quality requires a mold temperature above 100°C.
Regrind
- Regrind of highly filled thermoplastic materials should only be recycled with special care. The regrind content must never exceed 15%, and only regrind of optimum quality should be used. In any case, part properties should be checked.
