Plastics in car interiors help reduce the weight of vehicles, allow new design options and enhance cost versus performance. Today, plastics are being used for an ever-increasing number of components inside cars, for example dashboards, head panels and upholstery. The main types are polypropylene (PP), polyurethane (PUR) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC).

Automotive Industries (AI) asked Thomas Schmutz, Leader Technical Service & Application Development at SONGWON Industrial Group, how different stabilizer packages can potentially influence the emission level for interior PP-based TPO automotive applications.
