HC Plastics News: Join TPE technology to make Shenghaoao "soft and hard" After acquiring the Italian company API in July last year, Shengyu expanded its soft touch polymer products and technologies based on the rigid plastics business, including the innovative thermoplastic elastomer compound (TPE). Product mix and material technology have been further expanded and enhanced. This "soft and hard" change allows Shenghaoao to provide customers with more comprehensive materials. The cooperation between MEGOLTM and VWGolf6 is the perfect performance of a soft touch material. 盛禧奥 MEGOLTM The world's first-tier supplier, BOS Group, previously identified the appropriate soft touch material for the foldable cup holder on the VWGolf6 rear seat armrest. The TPE solution is exactly what they are looking for, because the TPE soft touch material can achieve the soft bottom requirement in this application, avoiding the customer's discomfort when touching the hard part when the handrail is lifted. The soft touch materials in this application must have some special properties, including: strong adhesion to ABS, good scratch resistance, and high surface aesthetics. Of course, the performance of general automotive interior materials, including low VOC, anti-UV, etc., is also available. However, the TPE materials they found at the time had two major problems: In order to avoid deformation of components due to harsh molding conditions, the material must have a very wide molding window. Surface defects such as flow marks and pitting due to adhesion Shengao has provided them with the answers. The advantages of MEGOLTM HT155SV/PUVRBlack include: Can provide a more sturdy processing window for manufacturers when producing cup holders Shorter molding cycle High surface quality Provides excellent adhesion between TPE soft bottom and ABS rigid frame Significantly reduce scrap rate and reduce costs Compliance with regulations on atomization, odour and VOC The Shengao MEGOLTM HT155SV/PUVRBlack has won the customer's adoption with its superiority.
