What is GENESTAR™
Features of PA9T
PA9T has the following features.
POINT01 Low water absorption
The water absorption of polyamide is determined by amide group concentration. Because of the long chain diamine structure, it is low in amide group concentration and is difficult to absorb water.
POINT02 High heat resistance
PA9T is excellent in mechanical properties at high temperature. Since the glass transition temperature is 125℃, it can withstand sufficiently even in the automobile engine room which has been heated.
POINT03 Blister resistance
PA9T is suppresses the occurrence of blisters. It has been proven to suppress blistering even after reflow.
POINT04 Dimensional stability
Among polyamides, it boasts the highest level of dimensional stability. It can also be used for products where dimensional change becomes a problem.
POINT05 Moldability
Since PA9T is a homopolymer, it has been confirmed that it has less generation of gas during molding and is superior in moldability compared to general high heat-resistant polyamide products.
POINT06 Electrical characteristics
PA9T shows excellent tracking resistance. Therefore, it is suitable for USB type C and power semiconductor modules, as well as connectors that require high voltage.
POINT07 Chemical resistance
Even when immersed in various chemicals such as gasoline and engine oil which can not be avoided in automotive applications, it boasts high strength retention rate.
POINT08 Good coloration
PA9T is often used for in-vehicle connectors because coloring is good and color change is small after reflow.
*In addition to the above colors, we have a FAKRA color for automotive.
Features of PA9C
PA9C is excellent in weather resistance because there is no light absorption band which causes deterioration by grade for LED reflector plate.
