While PK and PA are both semi-
crystalline and contain an abundance of carbon and
oxygen, polyketone lacks the nitrogen present in
the amide bond of the nylon backbone.
In addition, PK can improve the sustainability of a
product through a lower carbon footprint because
the production of the resin emits up to 61 percent
less carbon dioxide (CO₂) than nylon.

FEATURED PRODUCTS
* Non-PFAS flame-retardant (FR) grades are manufactured without
intentionally added PFAS-based raw materials.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/Edgetek PKE Glass-Filled Product Bulletin.pdf
Available with 10–40% short
glass fiber fillers, these formulations provide
superior chemical resistance, low moisture
uptake, excellent dimensional stability, and high
impact and wear resistance.
Helping to improve sustainability over the end-
product lifecycle, these formulations offer a
reduced carbon footprint as a result of the PK
base resin.
The production of PK emits up to
61 percent less carbon dioxide (CO2) than nylon.
