Virgin polyamide 6 (nylon 6) chips for textile filament and tyre cord, packaging film, engineering compounds and injection parts. Spinners buy low relative viscosity (RV) grades, film and monofilament plants buy high RV. Price follows caprolactam and benzene, with Chinese plants setting the FOB. Chips are hygroscopic, so they ship in sealed aluminium-lined 25 kg bags.
