ALIPHATIC COPOLYAMIDE COMPOSITION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18553620 titled 'ALIPHATIC COPOLYAMIDE COMPOSITION
The patent application describes a polymer blend consisting of an aliphatic copolyamide and a semicrystalline, semiaromatic, or aromatic polyamide.
- The polymer blend contains over 50 wt. % to 99 wt. % of the aliphatic copolyamide as component A, and 1 wt. % to less than 50 wt. % of the semicrystalline, semiaromatic, or aromatic polyamide as component B.
- The total weight percentage of components A and B is 100 wt. %.
- A thermoplastic molding composition is also disclosed, which includes the polymer blend and at least one additional substance C.
- The invention covers processes for preparing the polymer blend and thermoplastic molding composition, as well as a method for using them in the production of molded and extruded parts.
- The resulting molded and extruded parts exhibit properties derived from the unique combination of the aliphatic copolyamide and the semicrystalline, semiaromatic, or aromatic polyamide.
Potential Applications: - This polymer blend can be used in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, and consumer goods for manufacturing molded and extruded parts.
Problems Solved: - The polymer blend addresses the need for materials with improved mechanical properties, heat resistance, and chemical resistance for demanding applications.
Benefits: - Enhanced performance characteristics compared to traditional polymer blends. - Increased durability and longevity of molded and extruded parts. - Greater design flexibility and potential for lightweighting in various applications.
Commercial Applications: - The polymer blend can be utilized in the production of automotive components, aerospace parts, industrial machinery, and consumer products, offering manufacturers a cost-effective solution with superior performance.
Questions about the Polymer Blend: 1. How does the combination of aliphatic copolyamide and semicrystalline, semiaromatic, or aromatic polyamide enhance the properties of the polymer blend? 2. What specific industries or applications can benefit the most from using this polymer blend in their manufacturing processes?
