    Close-up photograph of the knitted nylon fabric used in stockings Nylon fibers visualized using scanning electron microscopy While nylon was marketed as the durable and indestructible material of the people, it was sold at about one-and-a-half times the price of silk stockings ($4.27 per pound of nylon versus $2.79 per pound of silk).

  3. Nylon 66 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nylon_66

    Nylon 66 (loosely written nylon 6-6, nylon 6/6, nylon 6,6, or nylon 6:6) is a type of polyamide or nylon. It, and nylon 6 , are the two most common for textile and plastic industries. Nylon 66 is made of two monomers each containing 6 carbon atoms, hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid , which give nylon 66 its name. [ 1 ]

    The intake manifold of the PT Cruiser GT is made of Zytel, as is an oil conduit in a Volkswagen transmission. [5] Rollerblade Aggressive inline skates use Zytel in the Grind Plates. Zytel is used in the frame and grip assemblies in many of the firearms manufactured by Kel-Tec. The original Laser roller skates had the plates and trucks made from ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nylon_6

    The fibres can absorb up to 2.4% of water, although this lowers tensile strength. The glass transition temperature of Nylon 6 is 47 °C. As a synthetic fibre, Nylon 6 is generally white but can be dyed in a solution bath prior to production for different color results. Its tenacity is 6–8.5 gf/D with a density of 1.14 g/cm 3. Its melting ...

    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.

  9. Nylon 12 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nylon_12

    Nylon 12 exhibits properties between short chain aliphatic nylons (e.g., nylon 6 and nylon 66) and polyolefins. [3] At 178-180 °C, the melting point of nylon 12 is the lowest among the important polyamides. Its mechanical properties, such as hardness, tensile strength, and resistance to abrasion, are similar to those of nylon 6 and nylon 66.
