Fortunately, polymers based on polyketone (PK) offer a strong potential to replace POM by delivering equivalent performance and avoiding the toxicity issues of formaldehyde. PK materials also offer sustainability advantages over POM by emitting lower carbon emissions during polymer production.

Sustainable polymers are typically processed with bio-based or recycled materials. Many polymers can be formulated with varying levels of these raw materials to achieve sustainability goals. With the current state of recycling streams, polymers formulated with recycled raw materials often don’t perform as well as traditional polymers.
