So why POM?------------------------------------------------------------
Max Burger (the designer of MBK keycaps):
“POM has a delightful feel. That is somewhere in between ABS and PBT. Intrinsic buttery feel together with the texture makes the typing experience more enjoyable.”* POM is a great material for keycaps. The POM OG Cherry keycap is considered by some (
https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=101249.msg2778351#msg2778351) to be the best keycap ever
* POM is very durable. Unlike ABS, POM is resistant to yellowing and developing “shine” over time
* POM has a density of 1.41 g/cm3, which is much higher than ABS and PBT
* POM keycaps naturally have a smooth buttery feel, which is complemented by the beautiful surface texture of the MCC-profile keycaps
* POM is translucent, which makes it a perfect companion for RGB LEDs
