Properties summary for selected polymers:
Talc-filled Polypropylene resins, like INSPIRE™ TF1500 ESU and TF1305 ESU, are designed for unpainted, interior trim parts and provide best-in-class scratch resistance and optimised talc levels, which results in lower density and weight.
VELVEX™ reinforced elastomers, for unpainted interior trim applications, offer better scratch-and-mar resistance and a uniform low gloss than established materials such as most talc-filled PP, PA/ABS or ABS products.
MAGNUM™ 3416SC and MAGNUM™ 3616 are recognised as the high-heat ABS resins of choice. These market-leading resins enable the production of automotive interior parts that have excellent heat resistance and dimensional stability.
MAGNUM™ 3904 is a special, high-impact grade for use for impact resistant parts. All MAGNUM™ ABS grades provide outstanding thermal stability during processing, resulting in unprecedented low odour and carbon emission performance.
For luxury vehicles with enhanced, low-temperature impact requirements, Resinex offers PC/ABS PULSE™ engineering resins from Trinseo, like PULSE™ A35-105, PULSE™ A35-110 for high temperature resistance or the newly developed PULSE™ GX50.
Scolefin® PP compounds are prime compounds based on PP homopolymers as well as copolymers. They are used for a wide range of automotive applications gaining reputation for its high quality and competitive price.
Industrial quality compounds and high quality recycled Mafill® PP, Mablex® PC/ABS, Ravamid® PA and other compounds from the production of our mother company Ravago are not only very economical but also an environmentally friendly solution for many automotive applications.
