Dryer Points to note on selection

It is usually supplied in a moisture-proof bag, so after opening it can be molded without drying if it does not absorb moisture. In the atmospheric environment, be careful because it absorbs moisture to 5000 ppm or more rapidly. Natural nylon that has sufficiently absorbed moisture has a problem of oxidative yellowing, so it can not be kept at high temperatures for a long time and drying is particularly difficult.
