Nylacast Moly

Nylacast Moly is a cast nylon 6 material in which improved

crystallisation occurs by the addition of occurs by the

addition of Molybdenum Disulphide. On account of this

the superficial hardness increases (providing excellent

machine ability) and simultaneously the general mechanical

and anti-friction properties are improved. Due to the fact

that the crystal structure breaks down immediately before

the melting temperature is reached, the thermal properties

of the material are improved over the basic grade.

MoS2 provides a degree of self lubrication leading to an

improvement in the wear properties of the material. These

improved properties, combined with lower water absorption

extend the range of applications that Moly has over Natural

cast nylon. Dynamic bearing applications at elevated

operating temperatures of up to 105 °C are particularly

suited to this material.
