In each comparison, polyketone thermoplastics offer product engineers and designers a new tool in the product development toolbox for engineering plastics. A noticeable difference here is impact properties, which are improved for nylons since water plasticizes nylon and makes them more impact resistant. What is the lead time for these materials?
