OVERVIEW of Trogamid® T5000 |
Trogamid® high-performance compounds are distinguished by their permanent transparency and high chemical resistance. Trogamid® T grades comprise the amorphous products based on polyamide 6-3-T and are characterized by their high resistance to dynamic loads. This high resistance to dynamic loads Trogamid® T5000 has proven for many years in the applications of water treatment and filter technology.
In addition to the physical properties, it is also essential that Trogamid® compounds coming into contact with drinking water and food are toxicologically harmless. For example, the compounds meet the requirements for the German KTW approval, an important part of the DVGW certificate (German Association of Gas and Water). Only approved parts are used in drinking water supply systems.
The special properties of Trogamid® T have made it useful in many branches of industry:
Electrical Industry: - high-voltage switch casings, cable glands, battery seals, keys and push buttons, terminal strips, casings for switches, relays, and counters, gearwheels and gear racks
Water Resource Management and Filter Technology: - filter cups for pneumatic systems,
filter cups for water treatment, fuel filter cups, pump casings, metering devices, inspection glasses
Machine and Apparatus Construction: - Flowmeters, liquid-level indicators, valve blocks and common control blocks for dispensing and metering equipment, guide rails
Plate Thickness: 3/8" to 4" (natural, black)
Rod Diameter: 1/2" to 6" (natural, black)

FEATURES AND BENEFITS of Trogamid® T5000 |
Benefits of Trogamid® T5000
The chemical structure of Trogamid® T places it in the class of amorphous polyamides; it is therefore transparent (ISO 1874 designation: PA NDT/INDT). The amorphous structure also results in low mold shrinkage and low tendency to warp. In addition, the compounds are distinguished by the following properties:
Transparency
High level of light transmission
Good electrical properties
High mechanical strength
High dynamical strength
High heat deflection temperature
High toughness
Good resistance to chemicals
Inherent self extinguishing
