Scratch and mar resistance of automotive plastics is becoming increasingly important due to the growing use of plastics in the automotive industry and the trend to eliminate paint in favour of moulded-in-colour. Plastic surfaces can be protected by using coatings, laminates, scratch-resistant resins, or additive formulations designed for improved scratch and mar resistance. Jennifer Markarian reports for Plastics Additives & Compounding.

The New Technology Symposium, the first of its kind presented by the Society of Plastics Engineers' (SPE) New Technology Committee, was recently held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in the U.S. Speakers from academia and industry focused on emerging technology in advanced energy storage, nanotechnology and biotechnology. Attendees noted that their companies were looking for new technologies they could begin to study and apply now for commercialization five to ten years down the road. Plastics Additives & Compounding highlights some of the presentations related to additives and compounding.
