Dark-colored automotive exterior plastic parts exposed to the sun are submitted to temperature raising. This can lead to part deformation. To allow heat reflection, CoolTouch™ technology has been developped. Learn more in this Solution DataSheet.
Discover how to prevent heat build-up, to extend service life of plastic for outdoor building parts thanks to a new PMMA material
Learn about the new heat-reflecting molding compound for dark-colored plastic parts that do not heat up, even in strong sunlight
New nylon powder that allow a higher surface aspect and provides plastic mimics to the prototype
Find out how PMMA Molding Compounds can fit your design requirements for all opaque automotive applications: mirror housings, pillar covers, etc.
This new unreinforced ultra-performance polymer (SRP) offers unprecedented strength and stiffness, even metal-like mechanical properties, combined with other key performance attributes needed for demanding medical applications.
Brilliant colors attract attention - Styrolux® excels in injection molding with color, transparency and excellent flow properties.
Styrolux® allows the production of injection molded display boxes with glass-clear transparency, good impact resistance and impressive surface luster.
Styrolux® has characteristics ideal for sophisticated design, complex shapes, and brilliant colors - either transparent or opaque.
The design flexibility of Styrolux® lets you create the products you really want.
Injection molded hangers can now be tough and clear while offering good processability on existing machines.
Akulon® Ultraflow® offers better surface appearance for engine covers and can avoid the need for painting when the molded part finish is proactively taken into account during the development phase (tool surface finish, injection gate and welding lines location studies).
Due to its semi-cristalline structure the Akulon® Ultraflow® exhibits an inherent chemical resistance which is needed due to the repeated under-the-hood fluids contact on these parts.
The Akulon® PA6 is an already proven economical solution on rocker valve covers.

In applications such as vacuum cleaner dust attraction is a critical issue. New generation antistatic and transparent materials can be used in these markets and can avoid additional cost & complexity of a spray-on anti-static agent
NAS and ZYLAR give designers worldwide an alternative for the most demanding applications. Recent applications - such as P-O-P displays, cosmetics packaging, office products, toys, computer peripherals, water filter pitchers and medical devices - are just some of the transparent products designers and manufacturers mold from NAS and ZYLAR
To produce these glasses, jugs and bowls of a modern design in transparent plastic is a considerable technical achievement. The wall thickness of these parts ranges from 1.5 to 20 mm (with thick walls at the base of the glasses and very thin walls around the rim)
Exterior parts such as bumper fascia are sometimes partially painted to give a two-tone effect. In these applications, it is critical to properly select the stabilization system for the unpainted section....
This new lightweight baggage collection is designed so as to make optimum use of the space inside - there are no inner ribs. The aluminum frame has also been dispensed.
TPO and PP are moving into new automotive applications with severe weathering requirements. Selecting the right stabilizer system gives you a real competitive advantage in many automotive applications...
