Custom specialty engineered thermoplastic formulations designed to meet your application requirements
High density polymer-metal composites are an ideal alternative to lead and other traditional metals
https://www.avient.com/idea/achieve-sensory-branding-goals-packaging
Some manufacturers are choosing polymer-metal composites that provide the equivalent weight of metal, but also allow for the design freedom provided by thermoplastics.

With PK, you can get engineered thermoplastic performance with an added benefit of a polyolefin carbon footprint.
In each comparison, polyketone thermoplastics offer product engineers and designers a new tool in the product development toolbox for engineering plastics.
The charts above compare 30% short glass-fiber filled samples and show a noticeable difference in the moisture uptake behavior of PK versus to PA6 & PA66.
