UBE Nylon presents a range of high-performance polyamide materials specifically engineered for cast process applications, delivering exceptional properties for coextruded films containing PA. These advanced nylon grades, including UBE NYLON 1030B, 5032B, and 5034B, are designed to meet the rigorous demands of industries requiring superior film performance, combining flexibility, durability, and precision.
One of the standout features of these materials is their exceptional mechanical performance. With tensile modulus values ranging from 450 to 800 MPa, the films exhibit remarkable flexibility while maintaining structural integrity. This makes them ideal for applications where both strength and pliability are critical, such as flexible packaging and industrial liners. The high tensile elongation at break, reaching up to 500%, further ensures that the films can withstand significant stress without failure, providing reliability in demanding environments.
Puncture resistance is another key advantage, with puncture energy levels up to 50 mJ, offering superior protection for sensitive contents in packaging applications. This property is particularly valuable in industries like food packaging, medical supplies, and protective coatings, where material integrity is paramount. Additionally, the optical clarity of these films, with haze levels as low as 1%, ensures excellent transparency for applications requiring visibility, such as display films or high-clarity packaging.
The materials also excel in impact resistance, demonstrating robust performance under varying temperatures. Flex crack resistance tests at 23°C and 5°C confirm their adaptability to different environmental conditions, while Spencer impact energy values of up to 1000 mJ highlight their ability to absorb and dissipate energy effectively. These properties make films containing UBE NYLON a reliable choice for applications exposed to mechanical stress or extreme conditions.
UBE Nylon’s cast process solutions for films containing PA are tailored for industries that demand precision and performance with regard to sustainability and recyclability, including automotive, electronics, food packaging… The combination of mechanical strength, optical clarity, and impact resistance ensures that these films meet the highest standards of quality and durability.
