Overview

• Unique engineering plastic, the polymer of which backbone consists of only Carbons.
• Highly crystalline with compact crystal structure
• Excellent impact resistance, abrasion resistance,chemical resistance,fuel resistance,gas barrier properties

After developing proprietary technologies, Hyosung Corporation is producing POKETONE in the 50,000 tons per annum commercial plant located in Yongyeon, Ulsan, Korea.

Definition

POKETONE is a tough semi-crystalline thermoplastic which has perfectly alternating structure of Carbon monoxide and Olefin.

Structure

POKETONE is the unique engineering plastics, the backbone of which is composed of only Carbons. Its flexible chains together with the molecular symmetry enhances crystallization which results in many differentiated properties such as excellent chemical and impact resistance, exceptional wear resistance and barrier properties.

Properties

High impact strength

POKETONE has high impact strength taking advantages of relatively flexible CO/Olefin polymer backbone.

Excellent chemical resistance

POKETONE is highly resistant to automotive fluids, hydrocarbon solvents, salts, and weak acids and bases.

Excellent wear resistance

POKETONE has excellent wear resistance even better than POM and reduces various noise issues.

Exceptional barrier properties

The gas and hydrocarbon barrier properties of POKETONE is exceptional as similar to EVOH that is at the highest level of all existing polymers.
