Nylon Pigments

Pigments for Nylon: Built for Strength, Heat, and Longevity

Nylon polymers are known for their toughness, abrasion resistance, and structural integrity, particularly under thermal and mechanical stress. Pigments used in nylon applications must match this performance—retaining color under heat, blending smoothly during processing, and resisting discoloration due to oxidation and environmental exposure.

Superior Thermal Resistance for Nylon Processing

Nylon is processed at temperatures ranging from 240–300°C, which demands thermally stable pigments that won’t degrade or shift in hue during compounding or molding. Fineland Chem’s pigments are optimized for thermal resilience, ensuring consistent coloration without affecting part strength or material flow behavior.

Optimized Dispersion in Filled and Unfilled Grades

Nylon is often reinforced with glass fiber or other additives. Our pigment technologies are engineered to disperse uniformly in both neat and filled formulations, minimizing streaking or shade variation and supporting efficient, large-scale production of complex components.

Long-Term Color Stability Under Stress

Whether nylon parts are exposed to high loads, friction, or outdoor conditions, pigment performance must remain stable. Our pigment systems resist yellowing, chalking, and fading over time—even under mechanical cycling, chemical exposure, or UV light.

Application Areas for Nylon Pigments

Fineland Chem’s pigments are designed to perform in demanding industrial applications, including:

• Automotive under-the-hood components (e.g., housings, brackets, covers)
• Electrical connectors and switchgear
• Industrial fasteners, bushings, and gear wheels
• Cable sheathing and insulation in high-voltage systems
• Engineering-grade injection molded parts and machine components
