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.
Compared to glass-filled PA6 & PA66, moisture does very little to affect the physical property change of glass-filled PK.

Hammerhead™ Composite Panels are made
from continuous glass-fiber reinforced
thermoplastic face sheets and polyester
foam cores.
Honeycomb panels are made from
polypropylene, making it easier to avoid
compromising the core during thermal
lamination.
