Fenders made of this thermoplastic material have survived exposure to electrolytic treatment (ELPO) cure temperatures of 200 C in a commercial assembly plant with no additional steel reinforcement or part readjustment and achieved a final part appearance comparable to steel.This paper discusses the material, part design, molding, painting, on comparative properties, and economics of this new exterior automotive engineering resin
