Nylon and Anti-Static
Nylon
The most effective heat-sealable
plastic films for long-term Level I packaging of
critical, precision parts. These films create excellent
primary barriers for packaging electronics,
pharmaceutical products, and precision bearings and
components.
Clean Room Products' NYLON and ANTI-STATIC NYLON are
fabricated of Nylon 6, a polyamide. Nylon 6 has the
maximum stiffness, strength and heat-resistance of all
the nylons, and is therefore the most commonly used nylon
for a variety of applications.
It should be noted, however, that all nylons absorb a
certain level of water from the atmosphere, and that the
equilibrium point of their moisture-absorption depends on
the relative humidity.
Features
Holds up under elevated temperatures
Superior gas barrier properties
Extremely oil- and grease-resistant
Maximum resistance to abrasion, wear and puncture
Autoclavable and excellent for pharmaceuticals
NYLON is FDA-approved for packaging food and meat (Anti-static
nylon is not FDA-approved)
Cleaned and packaged in our Class 10/100 clean room to
Clean Room Products Level I. (Other government, industry
and company specs met on request.)
Available in lay-flat tubing, bags and centerfold
sheeting in a variety of standard sizes and thicknesses
Custom sizes and gauges also available

orange tint will fade upon long exposure to UV
light; however, all other properties, including
anti- static, are not affected.
