The addition of MoS₂ renders this material somewhat stiffer, harder and dimensionally more stable than Ertalon 66 SA, but results in some loss of impact strength. The nucleating effect of the molybdenum disulphide results in an improved crystalline structure enhancing bearing and wear properties.

Product Overview.

High mechanical strength, stiffness, hardness and toughness
Good fatigue resistance
High mechanical damping ability
Good sliding properties
Excellent wear resistance
Good electrical insulating properties
Good resistance to high energy radiation (gamma- and X-rays)
Good machinability

Engineering Notes.

Nylons can absorb up to 7% (by weight) water under high humidity or submerged in water. This can result in dimensional changes up to 2% and a corresponding reduction of physical properties. Proper design techniques can frequently compensate for this factor.
