AdvanSix Aegis® HFX High Barrier Nylon (discontinued **)
Categories:	Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Nylon (Polyamide PA)
Material Notes:	Description: Aegis® HFX is an oxygen scavenging polyamide composition formulated specifically for use in high performance packaging applications where high gas barrier is required. This product is useful in injection and extrusion molding applications. Aegis® HFX offers high oxygen barrier, even at high humidity, outstanding delamination resistance and whitening resistance, clarity and easy processing (particularly in the PET co-injection stretch blow molding process). Former Honeywell product; AdvanSix is a spin-off of Honeywell.
