What Is It?
NEXXALAC™ Unfilled PC/ABS Compound, blending PC's heat resistance with ABS's processability for automotive interior applications.
How It's Manufactured
PC and ABS resins are melt-blended on a twin-screw extruder at a temperature suited to both components.
Manufacturing Process for This Application
Interior trim components are injection molded from the blend, taking advantage of its good flow for detailed dashboard and console trim geometry.
Why Polymer Choice Matters Here
An automotive interior panel experiences intense parked-car heat (well above what most consumer electronics see) alongside constant handling — PC/ABS's blended heat resistance and impact strength addresses both simultaneously, which is why it, rather than plain ABS, is specified for the hotter interior locations.
Why This Compound Is Suited
"Automotive interior parts" is explicitly listed among this grade's applications.
Nexxa Compounds is a leading manufacturer of PC/ABS compounds for automotive interior part applications in India, supplying some of the largest manufacturers across India and internationally.
