LEONA ™

LEONA™ Standard grade Key Features

The core lineup of LEONA™ PA66 resins offers an extensive range of options tailored to specific needs: from standard formulations to glass-fiber (GF) reinforced,

low-warp and low-abrasion, impact-resistant, high-viscosity and fatigue-resistant, friction-friendly, heat-resistant, flame-retardant options, and more.

Heat Resistance

LEONA™ has a high melting point (265°C) in general-purpose engineering plastics and boasts excellent heat resistance.

Electrical Insulation

LEONA™ features excellent electrical insulation and tracking resistance. These properties are derived from the absence of benzene rings in the molecular structure.

Mechanical Properties

LEONA™ features excellent strength and rigidity. These properties are derived from the molecular structure of PA66 resins, which feature tightly interwoven polymer chains with hydrogen bonds acting between.

High Toughness & Impact Resistance

LEONA™ has high toughness and impact resistance derived from the molecular structure of PA66 resins, which allows them to exhibit water-absorption-induced plasticity.

Resistance to Oil & Organic Solvents

LEONA™ features excellent resistance to non-acid chemicals, organic solvents, lubricant oils, and similar substances.

Optional Fillers for Strength Reinforcement

LEONA™ has high intermolecular cohesion and does not become brittle even when compounded with fillers.
