DuPont™ Elvamide® nylon multipolymer resins are a family of unique polymers having outstanding abrasion resistance, high tensile strength and elongation, and excellent adhesion to nylon yarns.

DuPont, with years of experience in polyamide technology, is a major producer of alcohol soluble multipolymer nylon resins. Important benefits of DuPont™ Elvamide® are:


  • Excellent adhesion to nylon yarn

  • Readily applied from solutions in low cost, quick evaporating alcohols

  • High melting point prevents “gumming-up” at high needle temperatures frequently encountered in high speed sewing

  • Economical in use. Only 4 to 10% Elvamide® is required to give excellent bonding

  • Consistent quality
