Hi Genny - Nylon is the generic name for a family of Polyamide polymers
first introduced in the US by Du Point (extra bonus points if someone can
tell me what year!). Do you have the specific tradename of the nylon you
are dealing with (e.g. Zytel, Rilsan)? Or get a copy of the Handbook of
Electrical and Electronic Insulating Materials, W. Tillar Shugg, ISBN
0-7803-1030-6 which has an excellent chapter on nylon material properties.
Good Luck.

[TN] Nylon connectors - moisture sensitivity
We have been told that a surface mount nylon connector we use is
moisture sensitive, and should be treated as equivalent to level 5a.
This is the highest level we have ever seen on any component we have
used of any type. I didn't think that a connector could be moisture
sensitive. Not heat tolerant, yes - we have melted a few - but moisture
sensitive?
What kind of damage can happen to a nylon connector from too much
moisture absorption?
Thanks in advance for your responses.
Genny
