VESTAMID庐 LX9117 BK is a glass-fiber-reinforced, electrically conductive PA12 molding compound that was developed in particular for the injection molding of connecting elements for fuel line systems (such as quick connectors).
The electrical conductivity of VESTAMID庐 LX9117 BK changes only slightly on contact with fuels, even if they contain alcohol. This is of great importance for use in fuel-conducting systems.
The material also has the advantageous properties characteristic of polyamide 12. The low water absorption leads to good dimensional stability of components in changing ambient humidity, and the other properties also remain virtually unchanged.
VESTAMID庐 LX9117 BK is supplied as cylindrical granules, ready for processing, in moisture-proof bags.
Our technical experts would appreciate to give you support regarding the special requirements for the processing of VESTAMID庐 LX9117 BK.
Pigmentation may affect values.
Inside the original and undamaged packaging, the product has a shelf life of at least 2 years when stored in dry rooms at temperatures not exceeding 30掳C.
The results shown have been generated from a low number of production lots. Therefore, they are preliminary and not yet the result of a statistical evaluation. Therefore they must not be used to establish specifications.
