Automotive transport

In the automotive and transportation sector, innovation is driven as much by the desire for cost and weight reduction as it is by the need to comply with increasingly stringent standards and regulations. By incorporating MAgHDPE into their conventional resins, producers of fuel tanks can reduce from five to three the number of layers in systems assembled from EVOH and HDPE laminates – achieving savings in both cost and weight.

In other multi-material automotive assemblies, such as TPE and glass or TPE and steel, the outstanding properties of PRIEX® resins can be introduced without the need for additional solvent treatments for promoting adhesion. The environmental benefits are significant.
