- Processing
Ketoprix™ Polyketone fiber reinforced, thermally conductive compounds are processable in conventional Injection Molding (IM) equipment. Due to the higher flow viscosities of these highly filled compounds, each molding situation must be assessed on an individual basis. More information about IM operation of Ketoprix™ Polyketone resins is contained in our Ketoprix™ Injection Molding Guide. The key to processing Ketoprix™ Polyketones is to minimize holdup and residence time as much as possible.
