Engineering plastics and metals have been extensively replaced by polypropylene (PP) compounds in the automotive parts to achieve a significant weight reduction and cost savings. PP compounds are low in cost yet have outstanding mechanical properties and moldability. The compounds account for more than half of plastics used in a vehicle. The adoption of PP compound for new automotive applications and the cannibalization of other plastics by PP compound is expected to increase the share of PP compound in the automotive plastics market from 28.4% in 2017 to 34.4% in 2030. PP compounds have managed to substitute ABS in several lower-end automotive applications. This substitution is further expected in these applications such as center consoles, door panels, and side pillars. PC/ABS is a highly impact-resistant polymer which finds use in bumpers, but it has been losing its share to TPOs, as TPOs provide a cost-effective alternative to PC/ABS. LFT-PP also substitutes PC/ABS in overhead consoles of automobiles. Weak impact and aesthetic performance limit the usage of virgin PP in automotive industry. Major applications for virgin PP in automotive industry include surge tanks, battery cases, covers, and door liners. Demand for virgin PP in the automotive industry is tied-up with the increasing demand for PP compound in the automotive industry. The direct application of virgin PP in the automotive industry faces replacement threat from PP compound.
Thermoplastic Polyolefins (TPO) are used for applications which require high impact strength. TPO is polypropylene compounded with a rubber/elastomer without being vulcanized. PP compound, which contains vulcanized rubber/elastomer, is termed as a thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV). These have high-elastic strength and are used for coverings and tubes. TPO and TPV are widely used in automotive interiors for parts such as instrument panel, center consoles, and interior trims. Interior parts that require good aesthetics along with a soft-touch make use of TPO and TPV. Applications such as closures use TPO due to their impact strength. Bumpers are the largest application of TPO in which it is already a mature market. Bumpers and fenders utilize TPO for high impact strength. Engine and transmission applications involve high heat and require stiffness. These property requirements are not met by TPO and TPV.
