Hytrel® TPC-ET 6359FG NC010

Hytrel TPC-ET 6359FG NC010 is a high-performance, medium-to-high-modulus thermoplastic polyester elastomer (TPC-ET) with a nominal hardness of 58D. This FG grade is developed for food-contact compliance and manufactured according to GMP principles. It offers exceptional toughness, resilience and flexibility at low temperatures, while maintaining strong mechanical performance at elevated temperatures. The material provides outstanding resistance to creep, impact and flex fatigue, and resists many industrial chemicals, oils and solvents. Hytrel TPC-ET 6359FG NC010 contains a non-discoloring stabilizer for improved color stability and can be processed using conventional thermoplastic techniques including injection molding, extrusion and forming operations.

Processing Notes:
Drying is recommended at 100°C for 2–3 hours to achieve a processing moisture content ≤0.08%. Hytrel TPC-ET 6359FG NC010 has an optimal melt temperature of 240°C (range 235–260°C) and an optimal mold temperature of 45°C (max. 55°C). For extrusion, drying at 90–110°C for 2–3 hours to achieve ≤0.06% moisture is recommended, with an optimal melt temperature of 230°C (range 225–240°C). Hytrel is incompatible with acetal and PVC. Please refer to the molding and extrusion guidelines for detailed recommendations.
