Material Notes:
ARLEN? is a heat resistant, modified polyamide 6T developed by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc. With a high melting point (320?C) and a rigidity level comparable to super engineering plastics, it possesses strong dimensional stability and chemical resistance. In addition, the effect of water absorption, which is a traditional weakness of polyamides, has been reduced to a minimum.
