The stress cracking of polyamide (nylon 6) by a number of metal nitrates in aqueous and nonaqueous solution has been investigated. Copper and zinc nitrates were the most active. Stress cracking parameters were determined and the sorption of the nitrates into nylon 6 film was studied using infrared techniques. Evidence of coordination of some metal nitrates when sorbed into nylon 6 was obtained.
