The material performance requirements of small displacement automobile hoods are lower than those of large displacement vehicles, and the material performance requirements are correspondingly reduced. This brings opportunities for the application of mineral reinforced PP materials. For this market segment, special mineral reinforced PP materials, such as P1M8R-W01, have a flexural modulus of 4000 MPa at room temperature and maintain stable performance at high temperatures.
Mineral reinforced PP P1M8R-W01 material applied to the engine cover of Geely
Under the test condition of 0.45MPa, the heat distortion temperature is as high as 126 °C, and it has excellent heat resistance, which can greatly reduce the cost in meeting the test requirements of the engine cover. This material can successfully replace nylon, and also opens up a new market for mineral-enhanced PP modified materials to enter the engine peripheral applications and replace engineering plastics.
