Pa12 gf20 is a type of engineering plastic that consists of polyamide 12 (pa12) compounds reinforced with 20% glass fibers. It is a high-performance material that has many advantages over pure nylon 12, such as higher strength, stiffness, thermal resistance, chemical resistance, and electrical properties. Pa12 gf20 is widely used for various applications in different industries, such as automotive, aerospace, medical, electrical, and industrial.
