For Brilliant Auto Lighting Design, GE’s New Lexan* Xtreme Heat Resins Shine with Performance, Weight & Processing Advantages
BERGEN OP ZOOM, THE NETHERLANDS — July 6, 2006 — As space and weight constraints drive more compact, sleeker forward lighting components, automotive suppliers seek materials that can meet the challenges posed by these new designs, including higher temperatures from proximity to bulbs and thinner-wall parts for reduced mass. Addressing this demand, GE Plastics’ new Lexan* Xtreme Heat (XHT) resin portfolio, one of the company’s Signature Surfaces* solutions, now offers automotive lighting designers new material choices for their most demanding applications. Lexan XHT resins deliver excellent resistance to deformation and color shift under high-heat conditions, and surpass many competitive materials such as thermosets in recyclability potential, density, and flow characteristics. Further, when used for bezels and reflectors, new Lexan XHT resins enable direct metallization, which eliminates the costs and environmental impact from pre-coating the part with paint or lacquer.
