Shelf Life For Nylon 6/6

[TangB]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone may know if there is an engineering study on the shelf life or aging study for Nylon 6/6 that uses a Vydyne 21x natural resin?

Thanks!

Do you mean like in an unopened bag or do you mean mouldings in service. If so what conditions.

Hi,

it is a molded part and it is stored in enviromental controlled conidtions at 25C and 40% RH.

Almost forever is my guess.

So long as there is no exposure to UV light, basically forever.
