SCG™ PP P780J and SCG™ PP P980J Innovative Plastic Resins to Keep up with Automotive Industry Trends

Publish On 16, Nov 2021 | SCG™ PP P780J and SCG™ PP P980J Innovative Plastic Resins to Keep up with Automotive Industry Trends

   An important challenge that the industrial sector across the world is currently taking on is the innovation of eco-friendly products, encompassing the use of manufacturing processes which reduce energy consumption all the way to the development of products which retain or even improve in efficiency and features.

 

   Likewise, the automotive industry has been focusing its efforts on developing new technology and enhancing the properties of materials used to manufacture each and every part, all with environmental impact in mind. The primary goal in the development of plastic automotive parts is the innovation of components that are lightweight yet just as strong as before in order to reduce overall vehicle weight and thus fuel usage, which will, in turn, further help reduce the emission of greenhouse gases and the severity of global warming while still retaining safety features for passengers.

 

 

   To this end, SCG Chemicals, has designed and developed SCGTM PP P780J and SCGTM PP P980J plastic resins, which feature higher strength and superior flow in order to fulfill the evolving needs of the automotive industry in the production of auto parts for both the interior and exterior of the passenger compartment, from the dashboard and console to the bumper.

 

   Both types of plastic resins feature enhanced strength, reducing the need for reinforcement filler and consequently the weight of the finished piece as well as the emission of volatile organic compounds, yielding products that are safe for the health and hygiene of consumers. Another special property of these plastic resins is improved flow during injection molding, allowing for the formation of thinner, more complex pieces that are light weight and strong.

 

 

   When used as materials in plastic compounding, SCGTM PP P780J and SCGTM PP P980J facilitate efficient forming of lightweight pieces and reduce waste due to flow marks. Furthermore, on the consumer end, drivers and passengers are protected from volatile organic compounds and benefit from reduced vehicle weight, which contributes to fuel efficiency and reduced greenhouse gas emissions as well.
