Engineered Polymer Formulations | Transportation And while underhood elements aren’t classified as appearance parts, the OEM wanted to achieve visual harmony when the hood was opened, so the material also had to match the black of other components in the engine compartment. Color standardization on behalf of the OEM for underhood parts

CLEVELAND – At the new AutoMobili-D Expo within the North American International Auto Show (January 8-12), PolyOne will feature its advanced materials portfolio developed to pave the way for tomorrow’s automotive mobility technologies. Engineers can leverage the advanced PolyOne portfolio to meet challenges in lightweighting, protecting sensitive electronics, and creating better interiors. Materials include specially formulated engineered polymers, thermoplastic elastomers, and continuous-fiber thermoplastic and thermoset composites.

As a complement to PolyOne’s liquid Excelite CFA portfolio for extrusion, new Excelite IM CFAs are engineered for a wide range of injection molded polymers, including olefins, PVC, polystyrene, PC/ABS, and high-heat materials. We’re also directly addressing customer needs and market trends for sustainability and lightweighting.” PHOTO CAPTION: Excelite™ IM chemical foaming additives allow injection molders to reduce weight and density in molded parts such as pallets, crates, storage boxes and more.
