New Nylon Fiber For Industry Use
A new nylon fiber named Aviamide from FMC Corporation is chemically treated to loosen molecular bonds and mechanically whipped into tiny virus-sized particles. It can be cast or extruded into strong shapes and mixed with water-based acrylic paints to prevent dripping and improve color dispersion. The microcrystals coat paper, stabilize inks, protect metals from corrosion, insulate foil or wire, and enhance fiberglass yarn performance.
