A newly engineered PFAS-free polyamide (PA) targets demanding low-friction applications, offering low friction and high-load performance without relying on PFAS additives that have traditionally provided wear resistance in engineering plastics. Aimed at sectors such as automotive and industrial machinery, it addresses tightening regulations while seeking to maintain or improve tribological performance.
A new PFAS-free polyamide offers low-friction and high-load performance
A new PFAS-free polyamide (PA) has been engineered specifically for demanding low-friction applications. For decades, PFAS additives have been relied upon to deliver low friction and wear resistance in engineering plastics. As regulatory pressure intensifies, industries ranging from automotive to industrial machinery are seeking alternative solutions.
