Global Nylon 6 Market Size, Manufacturers, Opportunities and Forecast to 2030

Global Nylon 6 Market Size, Manufacturers, Opportunities and Forecast to 2030


Summary

Nylon 6, is a polymer developed by Paul Schlack at IG Farben to reproduce the properties of nylon 6.6 without violating the patent on its production. It was given the trademark Perlon® in 1952.
Nylon 6 is the most common commercial grade of nylon. Nylon 6 is tough, possessing high tensile strength. Smaller diameters and thinner thickness sheets are produced by an extrusion process, while larger diameter and thicker sheets are produced by a casting process.
A lower melting point of 215oC gives Nylon 6 a slightly lower maximum working temperature of 170oC short term.
Nylon 6 is used in a broad range of products requiring materials of high strength. It is widely used for gears, fittings, and bearings, in automotive industry for under-the-hood parts, and as a material for power tools housings. It can also be used in gun frames, such as those used by Glock, which are made with a composite of Nylon 6 and other polymers.
