Performance of nylon

Nylon is a tough angular translucent or milky white crystalline resin. The molecular weight of nylon as an engineering plastic is generally 15,000 to 30,000. Nylon has high mechanical strength, high softening point, heat resistance, low friction coefficient, wear resistance, and self-lubrication. Resistance, shock absorption and noise reduction, oil resistance, weak acid resistance, alkali resistance and general solvent resistance, good electrical insulation, self-extinguishing, non-toxic, odorless, good weather resistance, poor dyeability. The disadvantage is that the water absorption is large, which affects the dimensional stability and electrical performance. The fiber reinforcement can reduce the water absorption rate of the resin and enable it to work under high temperature and high humidity. The affinity of nylon and glass fiber is very good.
