This article relates to an investigation of injection moulding a new commercial polymer, an aliphatic polyketone (PK). A terpolymer and a 30% glass-filled grade were used as study materials together with an isotactic polypropylene that was used as a basis for comparison. Both conventional injection moulding and shear-controlled orientation injection moulding (SCORIM) were employed in processing. Tensile testing was carried out at 80°C as well as at room temperature. Polarized light microscopy and wide-angle x-ray diffraction were used in the characterization of the mouldings. An increase of up to 30% in Young's modulus and 35% in ultimate tensile strength, and a 70-90% increase in strain at peak were gained for the terpolymer (PK) at room temperature, as a result of SCORIM processing. A substantial improvement at 80°C was also recorded for unfilled SCORIM PK mouldings, and is attributed to the pronounced molecular alignment that was induced in SCORIM mouldings, as shown by Debye patterns. It is notable that the SCORIM mouldings of PK exhibit a greater tensile strength at 80°C than the SCORIM mouldings of isotactic polypropylene at 23°C. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
