PVC alloy for use in air bag doors

摘要

A thermoplastic alloy of a melt processible crosslinked olefin thermoplastic elastomer dispersed in a PVC matrix. Improved compatibility of the alloyed components may be achieved through the use of a chlorinated olefin thermoplastic elastomer. The thermoplastic alloy is characterized by lessened mechanical deterioration from heat aging, and improved performance under low temperature conditions.
