POM is based on polymerized formaldehyde, which makes the polymer sensitive to thermal degradation, releasing formaldehyde gas. On the other hand, the PK structure is based on copolymerized carbon monoxide and ethylene, which is more thermally stable than POM and does not release formaldehyde as it thermally degrades.

These new orange colorants, developed as part of Avient’s OnColor portfolio, can help improve the heat and long-term color stability of cautionary, orange-colored polymers in both engineering and general-purpose plastics with no or limited adverse effects on mechanical properties or flame retardancy and can also be customized for laser marking (link to full press release here).   They are available across multiple polymer systems, including PA6, PA66, PC, POM, PBT, PPS, and PK, and provide comparable performance to conventional internally lubricated grades (link to full press release here).
