UBE NYLON 5036B is an advanced CoPA 6/6.6 grade suitable for a wide range of applications across various industries, because of its high-performing properties and excellent processability that facilitate the use in different manufacturing processes. This material also boasts outstanding mechanical properties, offering high tensile strength, which is essential for applications requiring durability and robustness.
Additionally, UBE NYLON 5036B is characterized by its exceptional resistance to puncture and tear, making it ideal for applications that need to withstand external forces without compromising material integrity. Its exceptional optical properties are also notable, providing superior clarity and other optical characteristics.
Thanks to its lower melting point of 179 °C, UBE NYLON 5036B offers an additional improvement in terms of recyclability versus other copolyamides.
One of the most prominent features of UBE NYLON 5036B is its ability to act as an effective barrier against oxygen, which is particularly valuable in food packaging and other products sensitive to air exposure.
Summing up, this new nylon grade is ideal for high demanding food packaging applications like thermoforming and stands out for its excellent processability, puncture resistance, superior mechanical & optical properties, oxygen barrier, and usage of less material with thickness reduction of the final package. In this way, UBE Nylon together with other advanced packaging materials contributes to saving food and minimizing plastic use. If you want to know more about it, download our technical data sheet!
