A DECORATED PLASTIC GLAZING ASSEMBLY VIA A FILM INSERT MOLDING PROCESS

摘要

The present invention provides an automotive glazing assembly constructed by a process of film insert molding (FIM). The glazing assembly comprises a transparent plastic substrate having an ink composition that has a blend of polyester and polycarbonate resins such that the ink exhibits uniform opacity and stability during all thermoforming and injection molding operations, and is capable of forming complex 3-D geometries. The glazing assembly comprising the ink composition is further free from surface defects such as pinholes and micro-cracks.
