Even the raw materials olefin and CO and their use for the polymerisation are special. POKETONETM is versatile, has various approvals, including FDA, KTW, WRAS and can therefore be used for food applications, drinking water applications, cosmetic packaging or toys. Flame-retardant products with UL approval are also available. The good tribological properties and the high chemical resistance are to be emphasised. The gas and hydrocarbon barrier properties of polyketone are also outstanding and at the highest level compared to other polymeric materials. The material is a particularly good alternative in the automotive sector, the electrical and electronics industry and in mechanical engineering.
