Nylon resins are typically used in applications requiring heat
and chemical resistance, as well as, toughness. Some examples
include under-the-hood automotive components, electrical connectors
for the telecommunications and computer industries and components
of medical devices. Nylon products can be found in virtually every
industry. Parts in a broad range of colors can be produced with
most nylon resins.
