Evonik Vestamid E55-S3 PA12 Granule Virgin Polyamide Resin IN STOCK PA12 Elastomer All Color

VESTAMID® E55-S3 is a polyether block amide (PEBA) elastomer based on PA12 chemistry. This virgin polyamide resin offers excellent flexibility, impact strength, and chemical resistance with availability in all colors and immediate stock availability.

VESTAMID® E compounds are polyether block amides (PEBAs) - block copolymers consisting of PA12 segments and polyether segments. Products rich in PA12 maintain the basic properties of that polymer, while increasing polyether content enhances elastomer characteristics including greater flexibility and higher cold impact strength.

Key advantages over competitive thermoplastic elastomers:

• Low density
• Excellent resistance to chemicals and solvents
• Easy processing, coloring, and overmolding
• Superior decoration capability via heat transfer printing
• Exceptional low-temperature impact strength
• Wide range of hardness and flexibility options
• High elasticity with excellent resilience
• Minimal temperature dependence of mechanical properties
• Free from volatile or leaching plasticizers

VESTAMID® E compounds are ideal for precision injection moldings such as noiseless gears and sports shoe components, as well as high-performance extrusion applications including paint spray hoses, vacuum brake booster lines, and premium decorative films. Available in unstabilized or heat- and light-stabilized formulations, including transparent and high-gloss options.

Evonik's VESTAMID® L compounds comprise numerous specialized products precisely tailored to processor and end-user requirements. PA12 features lower amide group concentration than other commercial polyamides, resulting in distinctive properties:

• Minimal water absorption with negligible dimensional changes from humidity variations
• Exceptionally high impact resistance and Charpy notched impact strength, even at sub-freezing temperatures
• Superior resistance to greases, oils, fuels, hydraulic fluids, solvents, salt solutions, and chemicals
• Excellent stress cracking resistance, even for metal-encapsulated injection molded parts
• Outstanding abrasion resistance
• Low dry sliding friction coefficient compared to steel, PBT, polyacetal, and other materials
• Effective noise and vibration damping properties
• Excellent fatigue resistance under frequent load changes
• Easy processability

Applications span sophisticated automotive line systems, large-volume crude oil production pipes, cable core insulation, medical catheters, and precision injection-molded components like impellers and control-valve housings.

As a prominent subgroup of polyamide elastomers, PA12 Vestamid E55-S3 belongs to the increasingly important class of thermoplastic elastomers (TPE). These block copolymers combine PA12 segments with polyether segments, where PA12-rich products maintain major PA12 properties while increasing polyether content enhances elastomer characteristics including greater flexibility and improved cold temperature impact strength.
