PA6 is one of the most important monadic nylons, mainly useful as a fibre-forming polymer and as an engineering plastic.
We can synthesize PA6 via melt polymerization of either aminocaproic acid or caprolactam.
Nylon 6 is a tough, abrasion-resistant material. It has improved surface appearance and processability compared to nylon 6/6. It also can be molded about 80 degrees F (45 degrees C) lower with less mold shrinkage because it is slightly less crystalline.
