The material alpharim is a variety of cast nylon, often also written as PA Cast, PA6C or nylon type 6. alpharim polymers GmbH produces out of this modified PA6 block copolymer semi-finished products (sheets and rods) and also finished products.
Cast Nylon polyamides is a high molecular and high crystalline polymer. Nylon Type 6 semi-finished and finished products are produced in a special casting process, where the raw material Caprolactam is polymerized in a controlled chemical reaction.
For the production of finished and semi-finished PA cast we use the NYRIM product.
By adding an elastomer on a variable basis, the production of a tailored made material for a wide field of application is possible.
Compared to extruded Nylon, the casted PA6 shows a higher degree of crystallisation and better characteristics for machining.
With our own RIM (Reaction Injection Moulding) procedure we can produce modified Cast Nylon polyamides, or PA6C or PA6G up to a weight of 35 kilos.
