window.Chart is not a constructor - error in LWC

I created a LWC chart and for whatever reason I have this error.. but only for some records and I don't know why.
 
import { api, LightningElement, track } from 'lwc';
import chartJS from '@salesforce/resourceUrl/chart';
import { loadScript } from 'lightning/platformResourceLoader';
import getChartDetail from '@salesforce/apex/RenderChart.getChartDetail';
import { ShowToastEvent } from "lightning/platformShowToastEvent";

export default class myRadarChart extends LightningElement {
    @api recordId;
    @track chartData = [];
    @track chartLabel = [];
    getRandomColor() {
      var letters = '0123456789ABCDEF';
      var color = '#';
      for (var i = 0; i < 6; i++) {
        color += letters[Math.floor(Math.random() * 16)];
      }
      return color;
    }
    connectedCallback(){
        loadScript(this, chartJS + "/Chart.min.js")
      .then(() => {
      
      })
    .catch((error) => {
      console.log("Error:", error);
    });
    getChartDetail({
      oppId : this.recordId
    }).then(result => {
      var tempresult = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(result));
      this.chartLabel = ["Power","Collaborate","CRTA","Pain","Value","Vision"];
      this.chartData = [];
      for(let temp of tempresult){
        let color = this.getRandomColor();
        let tempdata = [];
        tempdata.push(temp.Power_no_concat__c);
        tempdata.push(temp.Collaborate_no_concat__c);
        tempdata.push(temp.Compelling_Reason_to_Act_CRTA_no_concat__c);
        tempdata.push(temp.Pain_no_concat__c);
        tempdata.push(temp.Value_no_concat__c);
        tempdata.push(temp.Vision_no_concat__c);
        let chartMap = {
          label: temp.Name,
          borderColor: color,
          fill: false,
          pointHoverBackgroundColor: color,
          backgroundColor: "rgba(255,255,255, 0)",
          data: tempdata
        }
        this.chartData.push(chartMap);
      }
      this.callRadarChart();
    }).catch(error => {
      console.error('Error in RenderChart.getChartDetail' + error);
      this.dispatchEvent(new ShowToastEvent({
          title: "Error",
          message: error,
          variant: "error",
          mode: "dismissable"
        }));
      });
    }
    callRadarChart(){
      let config = {
        type: 'radar',
        data: {
          labels: this.chartLabel,
          datasets: this.chartData
        },
        options:{
          legend: {
            display: true,
            position: 'right',
            align: 'center',
            labels: {
              usePointStyle: true,
            }
          }
        }
      };
      this.insertToDOM("div.radarChart",config);
    }
    
    
    insertToDOM(divclass,config) {
      const canvas = document.createElement("canvas");
      const chartNode = this.template.querySelector(divclass);
      chartNode.innerHTML = "";
      chartNode.appendChild(canvas);
      const ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
      this.chart = new window.Chart(ctx, config);

    }
}


apex class:

public with sharing class RenderChart {
    @AuraEnabled(cacheable=true)
    public static List<Sales_Check__c> getChartDetail(String oppId) {
        Map<String,Decimal> mapnumberfields = new Map<String,Decimal>();
        List<Sales_Check__c> salesCheckList = [SELECT Id, Name,Collaborate_no_concat__c, Compelling_Reason_to_Act_CRTA_no_concat__c, Pain_no_concat__c, Value_no_concat__c, Vision_no_concat__c, Power_no_concat__c FROM Sales_Check__c Where Opportunity__c =:oppId];
        return salesCheckList;   
    }
}
