Dartek® cast Nylon 6,6 films
Dartek ® Nylon 6,6 cast film is a versatile material for packaging and industrial applications. When you specify Dartek® nylon film you know you'll be getting the performance you want, without compromise. The different grades of film each address specific performance requirements. Pick the kind of protection you need for your product, and rest assured that you'll get the consistent roll quality and job-to-job machinability you expect from TC Transcontinental Packaging.
Why Dartek® is the Ultimate High-Performance Film
You may use Dartek® for its ability to be shaped to fit your product, for its outstanding gas and oil barrier properties, for its clarity and abrasion resistance, or for its high tensile strength.
Dartek® retains its properties over a broad temperature range as it remains flexible as low as -100ºF (-73ºC) and will withstand temperatures up to 450ºF (232ºC), dependent on environmental conditions. It is resistant to most organic solvents and dilute alkalis, but should not be used in contact with strong acids. Its strength and durability are excellent, as is its abrasion resistance. The outstanding clarity and sparkle of Dartek® help to ensure that the packaged product is displayed optimally.
Dartek® C-917 Film
- Low shrink, vacuum bagging film used in manufacture and curing of laminated glass and aerospace composites. Used as a carrier web and release film for testing rubber compounds in rheometers.
- Cold formability in bagging applications and hot thermoformability in vacuum forming.
- Thin gauge, uniform surface and toughness for reduced waste and high integrity in wrapping and handling.
Dartek® T-404 & T-421 Films
- Low shrinkage film designed for cure-wrapping rubber sheeting, carrier web for print transfer and an interleaf release liner for calendared rubber sheeting.
- Thin gauge for improved cost effectiveness and reduced waste.
- Smooth uniform surface for reduced fiber prominence in FRP process.
Dartek® Cast Films
- Absorbs up to 10% of its weight in moisture, resulting in greater pliability over irregular surfaces.
- Often used as a membrane on vacuum hot tables used in painting conservation.
- Dartek® is soft and conforms well, yet is tough enough for high integrity in wrapping and handling.
Dartek® T-424 Films
- Uniaxially oriented film for use as a release and carrier sheet for cure-wrapping rubber rollers, rubber hosing, gaskets and belts.
- Offers greater wrap tension during high temperature curing processes.
- Offers good release for ease of removal.
Dartek® T-420 Films
- Uniaxially oriented film designed for use as a release or sheet in fiberglass reinforced panel (FRP) manufacturing.
- Offers good release for ease for removal.
- Superior gloss, greater stiffness, higher temperature resistance and superior dimensional stability than other nylon 6,6 films.
Dartek® EN-740 Films
- Ideal for sheet molding compounds.
- High temperature stabilized.
- Offers good release for ease of removal.
