Use	Application Nylon 12 is a long carbon chain polyamide, its methylene chain is longer, amide density is low; with low density, low melting point, good thermal stability, high decomposition temperature; low temperature resistance, oil resistance, corrosion resistance, excellent characteristics such as friction loss resistance; widely used in automotive system pipelines, chemical and petroleum pipelines, hydraulic transmission systems. Nylon 12 has low moisture absorption rate and can be used for electrical parts and instruments with precise size. It has good gas barrier property and is non-toxic, and can be used for food and pharmaceutical packaging. It has excellent termite resistance and can be used for wire and cable sheath. In short, nylon 12 is widely used in national defense, electronics, communications, machinery, food and other industries due to its excellent characteristics, and its application prospect is very broad.
