We have a clear opinion. And stick to it.

Why the transition of PA66 to PA6 or PBT still makes sense.

Actual market conditions show that supply chains for precursors of polyamide 66 compounds remain structurally strained for several years to come. LANXESS offers reliable and cost-efficient alternatives to PA66. With our experience and expertise in high-performance materials, we offer a wide range of proven options to replace PA66. Our high-performance plastics Durethan®B, Pocan® and Tepex® have material properties that provide excellent solutions for applications where PA66 is currently used. Without sacrificing functionality.
