Issue 11/2015 - INVISTA's new NovadynTM transparent polyamide significantly improves nylon production capacity

INVISTA recently announced that it will launch its new NovadynTM polyamide
at CHINAPLAS 2015 in Guangzhou in May.
NovadynTM polyamide is a transparent polymer that can also be used as a modification additive to improve the performance of traditional nylon
.
This semi-aromatic polyamide is unique, cost-effective and contains recycled content for applications
including automotive, electrical, industrial and consumer products.

NovadynTM DT/DI polyamide brings value
to customers who need to manufacture parts that meet both transparency and chemical resistance.
As a modified additive to traditional nylon, NovadynTM DT/DI polyamide significantly improves the conditional mechanical properties of nylon 6, 6 and nylon 6, including flexural strength and hardness up to 43%.

In humid environments, NovadynTM polyamide can improve the performance of conventional nylon, making parts thinner and promoting weight
reduction.
NovadynTM DT/DI and NovadynTM DT polyamide can also be used to adjust crystallinity, increase glass changeover temperature and reduce costs
.
These products can be used in injection molding, film formation, filament and fiber processing
.
