2 Artisan Pre-Colored Thermoplastics
Artisan™ Pre-Colored Thermoplastics
Artisan™ thermoplastics are vibrant, pre-colored high-gloss, scratch resistant engineered polymers
formulated to replace paint for superior results.
The impact-modified PA6 grade offers minimized scratch
appearance compared to painted plastic and improves corrosion resistance when replacing painted metal
parts.
By removing the painting process, these formulations also offer additional sustainable benefits:
energy use is reduced and VOCs are eliminated.

Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) FAQs
Until as recently as 1996, the six primary TPE types could be categorized into two generic classes, block copolymers (styrenics, copolyesters, polyurethanes and polyamides) or thermoplastic/elastomer blends & alloys (thermoplastic polyolefins and thermoplastic vulcanizates).

Aliphatic polyketone, often referred to as just polyketone or PK, is a semi-crystalline engineering resin that is an alternating copolymer of carbon monoxide and ethylene with some propylene (1–10%).
Interestingly, perfectly alternating polyketone copolymer results in a highly crystalline material that is very difficult to process.
With PK, you can get engineered thermoplastic performance with an added benefit of a polyolefin carbon footprint.

These components win by losing the paint and saying yes to molded-in color
It can be a challenge to paint these designs without overspray, drips and other imperfections.
Eliminate the paint and watch cost and complexity ramp down.
