  • Part One Introduction
    1 Part One Introduction If you once enter in the world of polymers, You will never leave it. T. Tsuruta 3 1 Introduction 1.1 Milestones in the Development of Polymer Science Regarding its subject of study, polymer science belongs to the oldest fields of science (existing since the times when living cells appeared), while as a separate, well-defined science it was formulated less than 100 years ago – between 1920 and 1930 – thanks to the pioneering works of the German chemist Hermann Staudinger (Figure 1.1). Polymer materials have always been used by human beings without having any idea what differs these materials from the others. The situation did not change even when the first synthetic polymer material was prepared around 1910 by Leo Baekeland –Bakelite.1 First, Baekeland produced soluble phenol-formaldehyde shellac called “Novolak”, but later he succeeded in preparing a hard plastic material. Bakelite continues to be used for wire insulation, brake pads and related automotive components, and industrial electric-related applications. Bakelite stock is still manufactured and produced in sheet, rod and tube form for industrial applications in the electronics, power generation, and aerospace industries, and under a variety of commercial brand names. Baekeland was a very talented chemist with an extremely strong feeling for commercially important products. But as a matter of fact, he did not contribute to the creation of polymer science in any theoretical aspect such as, for example, 1 Baekeland was already a wealthy person due to successful sales of his first serious discovery – the photographic paper Velox. E. Kodak, the designer of the first photographic camera, was so impressed by the new material that he immediately signed a check of one million dollars! In this way Baekeland, who expected to get at least US$ 10 000, was able to organize at home a chemical laboratory with all necessary equipment.

  • Dupont™ Zytel® 70K20HSL NC010 NYLON RESIN
    PRODUCT INFORMATION DuPont™ Zytel® 70K20HSL NC010 NYLON RESIN Product Information Common features of Zytel® nylon resin include mechanical and physical properties such as high mechanical strength, excellent balance of stiffness and toughness, good high temperature performance, good electrical and flammability properties, good abrasion and chemical resistance. In addition, Zytel® nylon resins are available in different modified and reinforced grades to create a wide range of products with tailored properties for specific processes and end-uses. Zytel® nylon resin, including most flame retardant grades, offer the ability to be coloured. The good melt stability of Zytel® nylon resin normally enables the recycling of properly handled production waste. If recycling is not possible, DuPont recommends, as the preferred option, incineration with energy recovery (-31kJ/g of base polymer) in appropriately equipped installations. For disposal, local regulations have to be observed. Zytel® nylon resin typically is used in demanding applications in the automotive, furniture, domestic appliances, sporting goods and construction industry. Zytel® 70K20HSL NC010 is a heat stabilized PA66 resin modified with Kevlar aramid fiber for excellent wear resistance.
