What Is It?
NEXXALON™ Glass Filled Compound, chosen for encapsulation housings needing dimensional stability around sealed electronics.
How It's Manufactured
Glass fiber is compounded into PA6 resin for enhanced mechanical and thermal properties over the unfilled grade.
Manufacturing Process for This Application
Encapsulation shells are injection molded to precise internal dimensions that have to seal reliably around a potted or sealed electronic assembly across its full temperature range in service.
Why Polymer Choice Matters Here
An encapsulation shell that shrinks or warps unevenly after molding can crack a potting compound seal or stress internal components — glass fiber's dimensional stability is what keeps that seal intact.
Why This Compound Is Suited
"Encapsulation" is explicitly listed among this grade's applications.
Nexxa Compounds is a leading manufacturer of PA6 compounds for electronics encapsulation applications in India, supplying some of the largest manufacturers across India and internationally.
