Co-Polymer PA6/IPDI & PA6/66

Durethan® and Novamid® Copolyamides

Polyamide Copolymer Solutions

Durethan (PA6/IPDI) and Novamid (PA6/66) are high-performance copolyamides from Envalior, specifically engineered to improve processing capabilities and enhance product properties in advanced industrial applications. Due to their controlled, delayed crystallization, these copolymers deliver unique capabilities such as superior flexibility, transparency and processability of thermoforming, making them ideal for blown films, monofilaments, and compounded materials.For the production of PA/PE multi layer films by blown film coextrusion

PA6/IPDI Copolymer and PA6/66 Copolymer Advantages

  • Delayed Crystallization: easier processing enhancing flexibility and transparency.
  • Wide Operating Window: Provides process stability and consistency in blown film applications.
  • Broad Viscosity Range: Extensive viscosity spectrum in Novamid grades, enabling tailored solutions.
  • Food Contact Compliance: Most grades meet stringent China, EU, MERCOSUR and US FDA regulations for direct food contact.
  • Chemical Composition:
    • Durethan C38Fxx: Polyamide 6/IPDI Copolymer
    • Novamid 2xxx: Polyamide 6/66 Copolymer
  • Melting Point: 193°C to 215°C (grade-specific)
  • Declarations: Available with US and EU and other food-contact approvals, depending on the grade.
  • Smooth Processing:
    • Stable bubble in blown-film production
    • Avoids wrinkles and lay-flat issues.
    • Simplified thermoforming and stretching due to controlled elasticity and crystallization rates.
  • Superior Product Quality:
    • High transparency and gloss for aesthetically appealing films and monofilaments.
    • High filament tenacity, ideal for demanding monofilament applications.

Envalior's Durethan and Novamid copolyamides excel in applications such as:

  • Blown and cast co-extrusion films: Suitable for food packaging, technical applications, and medical applications .
  • Monofilament production: High-performance sports fishing lines, industrial filaments, and technical textiles.
  • Packaging Options:
    • Novamid: 25 kg paper bags and 750 kg flexible big bags both with Al moisture barrier
    • Durethan: 25 kg PE bags with Al moisture barrier, 1000-kg Octabins, bulk silo trucks (up to 25 tons)

  • Global Availability: Strategically produced in Uerdingen (Germany) and in Kaohsiung (Taiwan) . Delivery conditions and lead times vary based on location and volume.
