In each comparison, polyketone thermoplastics offer product engineers and designers a new tool in the product development toolbox for engineering plastics.
A noticeable difference here is impact properties, which are improved for nylons since water plasticizes nylon and makes them more impact resistant.

Agents

Hydrocerol Chemical Foaming Agents
are supplied as concentrates
CHEMICAL FOAMING AGENTS (CFAs)
are chemical substances that react under the
influence of heat to release gas into the plastic
matrix during the manufacturing process of
plastic parts.
The gases form a cellular foam
structure in the plastic that reduces the amount
of material needed and hence the part’s
weight.
The portfolio
includes non-hazardous endothermic substances
that require minimum cooling of the plastic parts
after manufacturing.

Plastics are renowned for their durability, aesthetics, ease of handling and
recyclability.
The 2021 average injury incidence rate for our NAICS Code (326 Plastics and
Rubber Products Manufacturing) was 3.40.
In addition, we continue to engage and invest in the Alliance to End Plastic Waste (AEPW).

Plastics
In many ways, plastics are a perfect example of why a circular economy is so
important.
If not recycled properly, plastics can ends up in a landfill or, even worse,
the ocean.
Efforts can be made and systems can be built to keep discarded plastic in the
economy to either be upcycled, recycled, reused or composted.
