Does nylon rust?
No. An object cannot rust unless it contains iron.
Nylon is an example of what?
Nylon is a polyamide. There are two: nylon 6.6, which was invented by DuPont, and nylon 6, which was invented by BASF. DuPont had a patent on nylon 6.6 and wouldn't license it; BASF wanted to play in the polyamides market so they created a similar material using a different process. Of the two, nylon 6.6 has a higher melt point and is a little harder than nylon 6. Nylon 6.6 is a polymer of Hexamethylene diamine and Adipic acid (Hexadioic acid) both these compounds contain 6 carbon atoms each. so it is Nylon 6.6. (Which is true for nylon 6.6. Nylon 6 is polymerized caprolactam, so that's called Nylon 6 because caprolactam also has 6 carbon atoms.)
What materials does nylon consist of?
Sorry But I Dont Know. hahah :P
How the name nylon was derived?
The origion of the name Nylon is lost in history, though there are several clever answers/explanations to the nameThe most likely answer is that Nylon was created by both New York and London scientists so they used both of the cities nameNY in Nylon stands for New York andLon are the first three letters of London
What are the sources of nylon?
caprolactum for nylon 6 and adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine for nylon 6,6
Is nylon a metal?
Nylon is a synthetic polymer. It contains no metal.
What happens to nylon when you burn?
If you burn nylon, it simply turns into a black solid, whose appearance will be like that of carbon
What does nylon come from?
Nylon can be composed of several different chemicals, but the most common elements are carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen.
What is meanby manufacturing of nylon rope wire?
Nylon is a commonly used material in rope because it is exceptionally strong and rope and wire are basicly the same thing. So pretty much it just means making rope out of nylon.
What is the difference between Nylon 6-10 and Nylon 10-6?
The first number of the code is the number carbon donated but the diamine copolymer.The second number of the code is the number carbon donated but the diacid copolymer.Types of nylon with different code have of course different physical properties.
Does nylon rust?
No. An object cannot rust unless it contains iron.
What is the manufacturing process of nylon?
This youtube video shows a demonstration of nylon synthesis at Carleton University. He also explains generally how it is mass produced. See attached link for the youtube video.

What is used to make tires?
Rubber, steel, rayon or nylon, & carbon black.
What material are tires made from?
Rubber, Steel, Polyester or Nylon, & Carbon Black.
How is nylon prepared?
Nylon is one of the most important chemical discoveries of the 20th century .It is one of the toughest , strongest and most elastic substances we have today . It is a synthetic plastic material which is made from chemicals derived from coal, water, air, petroleum, agricultural by-products and natural gas . It was first developed by a research team headed by a U.S. chemist Wallace H.Corothers working in E.l. Dupant De Nemours & Co. He began experimenting with it in the 1920s. In 1935, he produced the first piece of nylon. It was converted into cloth in 1937. Nylon is made from two chemical compounds : Hexamethylenediamine consists of carbon, nitrogen and hydrogen. Adipic acid contains carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Each of these substances contains six carbon atoms and the Nylon-6, 6. Manufacturers combine the two compounds to form a substance called nylon salt. A solution of nylon salt is placed in an autoclave (a heating device). The autoclave heats the solution under pressure. Water is removed and the small molecules in the compound , combine to form large molecules. This process is called polymerisation. When caprolactam is used as the starting material, Nylon -6, 6 is obtained. It has been so named because it has six carbon atoms in the basic unit. It is comparatively a recent development.
How is Nylon manufacturing process?
1. It is manufactured by process of chemical polymerisation into thin fibre/sheet or spun into yarn.
