Thermoplastic Nylon
AkzoNobel thermoplastic nylons (Interpon TP) offer excellent abrasion, wear, and chemical resistance compared to standard polyester coatings. These tough, resilient coatings provide a durable option for smooth, low-friction surfaces, with exceptional solvent and chemical resistance, and good machinability.
The attractive smooth finish and exceptional resistance properties of nylon-based coatings allow for a wide range of applications, including those requiring high hygienic standards.
Typical Applications for Thermoplastic Nylon
- Marine hardware
- Shopping carts
- Office & institutional furniture
- Industrial pipe & fittings
- Automovite clips & wear surfaces
- Food processing & handling equipment
