BERGEN OP ZOOM, The Netherlands, November 20, 2012 - Ambient lighting is a growing trend in automotive interior design, enhancing consumer appeal. So when Chrysler Group LLC designed the 2013 Dodge Dart compact for young, style-conscious car buyers, the automaker turned to SABIC’s Innovative Plastics business to help create stylish interior lighting at an affordable cost.

The floating island bezel is the centerpiece of the all-new Dodge Dart interior. SABIC’s high-performance CYCOLOY™ and GELOY™ resins with molded-in color enabled Chrysler to achieve the Dart’s next-generation interior, which epitomizes the latest in vehicle design innovation. This successful project with Chrysler demonstrates the design-enabling power of SABIC’s automotive resins and the company’s ability to collaborate and support its customers throughout the development process – from concept feasibility to production.

Mitsubishi Motors Corporation sceglie la resina NORYL GTX™ di SABIC per i paraurti innovativi stampati a iniezione con stampo a 2 cavità per il modello Outlander Sport 2013
BERGEN OP ZOOM, Paesi Bassi, 15 novembre 2012 - Oggi la divisione Innovative Plastics di SABIC ha annunciato che Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC) ha scelto la resina SABIC NORYL GTX™ 989 di prossima generazione per i paraurti anteriori del suo crossover Outlander Sport 2013. I paraurti del veicolo sono i primi ad essere prodotti utilizzando lo stampaggio a iniezione con stampo a 2 cavità con la resina NORYL GTX, consentendo a MMC di dimezzare i tempi di produzione e di ridurre i costi di lavorazione. Gli altri principali vantaggi apportati dal materiale di SABIC comprendono la riduzione del peso rispetto all'acciaio e quindi di aumentare il risparmio di carburante, così come vantaggi legati alla sostenibilità e alla flessibilità per progettare i primi paraurti nordamericani dotati di staffe integrate per l'assorbimento degli urti della testa dei pedoni. L'adozione da parte di MMC della resina NORYL GTX 989 per la produzione in serie dei paraurti dimostra il crescente valore della tecnologia delle resine NORYL™ e NORYL GTX per l'industria automobilistica e la sua importanza per i clienti, rappresentando una soluzione che si rivolge a varie necessità legate alla produzione e alla sostenibilità.
