Formulated using select metallic fillers and engineered thermoplastic resins, these solutions offer densities similar to traditional metals while also providing design and processing flexibility because it can be extruded, molded, calendered or thermoformed into the final desired shape.

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.
If the material is allowed to stay in an injection molding machine or extruder (profile, sheet, etc.) too long, the material will start to discolor and brown ‘freckles’ may appear.
