POKETONE™ – PK from Hyosung

POKETONE™ is a tough semi-crystalline thermoplastic and has very good mechanical properties such as high impact strength. The polyketone (PK) has a particularly high wear resistance and good tribology. Its outstanding chemical resistance and hydrolysis resistance should also be emphasised. In addition, it has a high barrier effect, e.g. against oxygen and fuel.

Due to its exceptional properties, POKETONE™ is a true all-rounder and is also formaldehyde, bisphenol A (BPA) and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) free. Polyketone is an excellent addition to the engineering plastics PA, POM and PBT. In addition, it also possesses properties that only tribologically modified compounds or high-performance plastics offer. At K.D. Feddersen you can get the original polyketone from Hyosung for injection moulding.
