  2. Nylon 66 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nylon_66

    Nylon 66 is synthesized by polycondensation of hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid. Equivalent amounts of hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid are combined in water. In the original implementation, the resulting ammonium/carboxylate salt was isolated and then heated either in batches or continuously to induce polycondensation.

  3. Nylon 6 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nylon_6

    Caprolactam molecule used to synthesize Nylon 6 by ring opening polymerization. Nylon 6 or polycaprolactam is a polymer, in particular semicrystalline polyamide.Unlike most other nylons, nylon 6 is not a condensation polymer, but instead is formed by ring-opening polymerization; this makes it a special case in the comparison between condensation and addition polymers.

  4. Crystallization of polymers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystallization_of_polymers

    Crystallization of polymers is a process associated with partial alignment of their molecular chains. These chains fold together and form ordered regions called lamellae, which compose larger spheroidal structures named spherulites.

  5. Nylon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nylon

    Nylon is a family of synthetic polymers characterized by amide linkages, typically connecting aliphatic or semi-aromatic groups.. Nylons are generally white or colorless [1] [failed verification] [2] [failed verification] and possess a soft texture, with some varieties exhibiting a silk-like appearance.

    Polymers commonly crosslinked using the electron-beam irradiation process include polyvinyl chloride , thermoplastic polyurethanes and elastomers (TPUs), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polyamides / nylon (PA66, PA6, PA11, PA12), polyvinylidene fluoride , polymethylpentene (PMP), polyethylenes (LLDPE, LDPE, MDPE, HDPE, UHMWPE), and ethylene ...

  7. Polyphthalamide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphthalamide

    Repeating unit of polyphthalamide. Polyphthalamide (aka.PPA, [1] High Performance Polyamide) is a subset of thermoplastic synthetic resins in the polyamide family defined as when 55% or more moles of the carboxylic acid portion of the repeating unit in the polymer chain is composed of a combination of terephthalic (TPA) and isophthalic (IPA) acids. [2]

  8. Nylon 46 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nylon_46

    Nylon 46 (nylon 4-6, nylon 4/6 or nylon 4,6, PA46, Polyamide 46) is a high heat resistant polyamide or nylon. Envalior (formerly DSM) is the only commercial supplier of this resin, which markets under the trade name Stanyl.

  9. Difference engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Difference_engine

    A difference engine is an automatic mechanical calculator designed to tabulate polynomial functions. It was designed in the 1820s, and was first created by Charles Babbage . The name difference engine is derived from the method of finite differences , a way to interpolate or tabulate functions by using a small set of polynomial co-efficients.
