| Abstract;Recently, with increased concerns about global environmental issues, European car manufacturers have been using thermoplastic recyclate resin and natural raw materials for application to automotive components in order to make effective use of the limited oil resources. In Europe, where the demand for application of recyclate is growing stronger, attention is being turned to ASR (Automotive Shredder Residue) coming from disused cars. Polypropylene, separated and extruded from automotive shredder residue, has been used to develop recyclate with an excellent balance between rigidity and impact performance, that meets the requirements for under body components. This material has been applied to 2006 model year CIVIC in Europe. Cost has been reduced with these technologies, whilst making effective use of oil resources. (author abst.) |
