Automotive Applications of Plastics Past, Present, and Future... [Pg.653]

Some applications of plastics in the automotive industry are reviewed in the next sections. [Pg.160]

Chapters 6-8 discuss the application of plastics in various types of industry including automotive, aerospace, mechanical and general engineering. [Pg.270]

Schuh T and Gayer U (1997), Automotive applications of natural fiber composites , in Leao A L, Carvalho F X and Frollini E, Lignocellulosics-plastics Composites, Sao Paulo, Brazil, USP and UNESP, 181-195. [Pg.41]

This book is not only a survey of the role and reach of plastics in automobiles, but is an attempt to build a bridge between two different but interdependent industries. It describes the application of plastics to each sector of automotive engineering, and identifies the factors involved in their selection. It reviews key historical developments and assesses future opportunities and eonstraints. [Pg.193]

As explained in this chapter, plastics have made their way into the exterior of vehicles, particularly in bumper applications but also as underbody shields and exterior door handles. However, environmental conditions and stresses have limited the use of plastics in some exterior parts of vehicles. New automotive applications for plastics continue to be found, and their future will depend on the innovation of designers and OEMs. [Pg.21]

In summary, headlight lenses are one of the most common automotive applications for plastics, and polycarbonate was the first commercialized polymer to offer many beneficial performance characteristics for automotive lighting. Wheel systems remain within the domain of metals, except for decorative uses such as those found on hubcaps. [Pg.30]

Plasties, whieh feature lightweight eharacteristies, are ideal for heavy-duty automotive applications. The objeetive is to reduee fuel eonsumption and earbon dioxide emissions. A variety of plastics is necessary to aehieve optimum teehnieal and economic results. It has been found that meehanieal recycling is the best reeovery option for large PP automotive eomponents, while energy recovery is the solution for most small plastie parts. [Pg.83]
