Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) Amodel® A-4145 HH Polyphthalamide (PPA), 45% Glass Fiber  (Unverified Data**)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyphthalamide (PPA); Polyphthalamide (PPA), 50% Glass Fiber Reinforced

Material Notes: Amodel® A-4145 HH is a 45% glass fiber reinforced heat stabilized grade of polyphthalamide (PPA) that has been designed to provide outstanding property retention to thermal oxidative degradation at temperatures of 230°C. Other features are fast cycling and hot water moldability. This product is particularly suitable to air induction applications within downsized automotive engines such as air induction charge air cooling and exhaust gas recirculation.
- Black: A-4145 HH BK324

Key Attributes: Chemical Resistant; Creep Resistant; Fast Molding Cycle; Good Dimensional Stability; Good Stiffness; Heat Stabilized; High Heat Resistance; High Strength; Hot Water Moldability; Laser Weldable; Low Moisture Absorption; Lubricated

Applications: Automotive Applications; Automotive Under the Hood; Metal Replacement

Injection Notes: Injection Rate: 3 to 4 in/sec

Holding Pressure: 50% of injection pressure

Storage:
- Amodel® compounds are shipped in moisture-resistant packages at moisture levels according to specifications. Sealed, undamaged bags should be preferably stored in a dry room at a maximum temperature of 50°C (122°F) and should be protected from possible damage. If only a portion of a package is used, the remaining material should be transferred into a sealable container. It is recommended that Amodel® resins be dried prior to molding.

Proper Ventilation:
- It is strongly recommended that the processing site be correctly ventilated during molding. The ventilation should be placed directly above the injection nozzle to prevent exposure to fumes and gases that may be generated.
- In the event of a barrel purge where a large melt patty may be generated, it is often advisable to draw the purge patty into a bucket of water to reduce fumes.

Hot Runners:
- Solvay does not encourage the use of hot runner technology with this product.
