Polyvel RM40 contains 40% active molybdenum disulfide in a free flowing dustless pellet form.

RM40 is formulated using Nylon 6 as a carrier resin and has been specifically developed for use in Nylon 6 sheet and profile extrusion applications. RM40 functions in Nylon 6 as a nucleating agent, giving the Nylon parts a very fine crystalline structure.

Through this change in the normal amorphous structure of Nylon, the heat distortion temperature of the Nylon increases by as much as 50° F. Increasing the heat distortion temperature provides bearing and wear resistance properties far superior to unmodified Nylon 6. Polyvel RM40 also functions well as an internally lubricating additive when incorporated during the injection molding of Nylon 6.

Note: For applications in Nylon 6/6, please contact us for information on RM40Z which is specifically engineered for Nylon 6/6 applications.
