Plastics and Cars: the New-Born Member of the Family.

Bexloy resins belong to a new range of technical plastics for major body parts and bumpers. For manufacturers who are ready to think again about traditional methods of design, styling and assembly, Bexloy offers attractive possibilities for improving, at lower cost, the quality and durability of motor vehicles. Based on amorphous polyamides, this resin has a good resistance to impact and a fine surface finish. It resists automobile fluids in general and can be easily painted. The first commercial application of Bexloy was in the rear of the Pontaic Indy Fiero, and is formed under air pressure. With its much wider possibilities than the thermo-setting plastics used in this field, this resin opens up new horizons for technical plastics in automotive industry.
