Amodel® A-1422 LS is a mineral filled, light stabilized, highly reflective polyphthalamide (PPA) which has been designed specifically to meet the needs of high-brightness (HB) LEDs. It offers high initial whiteness of the assembled LED. Adhesion to the encapsulants is excellent. The thermal properties combined with low shrinkage provide excellent packing around the head frame. The inherent thermal stability of the material means high readibility and excellent luminosity retention over the product service life.
This grade also exhibits high deflection temperature, flexural modulus and tensile strength, with excellent creep resistance and low moisture absorption. It can be easily molded using convention injection molding equipment and methods.

Markets/Uses: Automotive / Automotive E/E / LEDs
Applications: Electrical/Electronic Applications; LEDs
Features: Chemical Resistant; Fast Molding Cycle; Good Color Stability; High Reflectivity; High Stiffness; Light Stabilized; Low Moisture Absorption
Injection notes: A general purpose screw is recommended, with minimum back 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 following the recommendations found in this datasheet and/or in the Amodel® processing guide.
