NANCAR® 6004


ISSUED : January 1997

NANCAR® 6004 is a medium low acrylonitrile butadiene copolymer. It is polymerized at low temperature and contains sufficient antioxidant for normal aging conditions.

NANCAR® 6004 is recommended for use in applications requiring improved low temperature properties, oil resistance, water resistance and anti-metal corrosion. It provides good processability and low mold staining properties.

NANCAR® 6004 is designed for products requiring exposure to extremely low temperatures while maintaining good oil resistance, for instance, aircraft equipment parts and other industrial spare parts.
