Polyamide composition, object produced from such a composition, and uses thereof
View Patent ↗The invention relates to a composition comprising at least one first polyamide, conforming to the formula MXD.10 or MXD.10/Z and having a melting temperature Tf 1 , and at least one second polyamide. Said at least second polyamide has a melting temperature Tf 2 such that Tf 1 −40° C.≦Tf 2 <Tf 1 +20° C. The invention likewise relates to an article obtained from such a composition, to a method of shaping such an article, and to the use of such a composition and of such an article.
1. A composition comprising:
a first polyamide consisting of 1,3-xylylenediamine monomer units and sebacic acid monomer units;
a second polyamide consisting of 11-aminoundecanoic acid monomer units;
a talc; and
a bio-based reinforcement comprising organic carbon obtained from biomass, which is selected from the group consisting of a plant fiber, a natural fiber, an animal fiber, a vegetable fiber, a polymeric fiber, and a ground material,
wherein an amount of the first polyamide is between 43.59% and 88.6% by weight relative to total weight of the composition, an amount of the second polyamide is between 4.92% and 10% relative to total weight of the composition, an amount of the talc is between 0.49% and 1% by weight relative to total weight of the composition, and an amount of the bio-based reinforcement is greater than 0% and less than or equal to 50% by weight relative to total weight of the composition.
2. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising at least one additive that is fillers, dyes, stabilizers, plasticizers, impact modifiers, surfactants, nucleating agents, pigments, brighteners, antioxidants, lubricants, flame retardants, natural waxes, or mixtures thereof.
3. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising a flame retardant in a proportion by weight of greater than 0% and less than or equal to 35% relative to total weight of the composition.
4. A monolayer structure or at least one layer of a multilayer structure, comprising a composition according to claim 1 .
5. The structure of claim 4 , wherein a form of the structure is a fiber, a film, a tube, a hollow body or an injection molding.
6. An article obtained from the composition of claim 1 .
7. An automotive, construction, household, electrical, electronics, medical or sports product, comprising the article according to claim 6 .
8. A method of shaping an article of claim 6 , comprising a step of injection molding.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first polyamide or the second polyamide comprises organic carbon obtained from biomass as determined in accordance with standard ASTF D6866.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein a content of the organic carbon obtained from biomass in the bio-based reinforcement is determined in accordance with standard ASTF D6866.
