POLYPROPYLENE COMPOSITE RESIN COMPOSITION AND MOLDED ARTICLE CONTAINING SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18231622 titled 'POLYPROPYLENE COMPOSITE RESIN COMPOSITION AND MOLDED ARTICLE CONTAINING SAME
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a polypropylene composite resin composition with improved impact resistance, as well as a molded article made from the composition.
- The composition includes a first propylene-ethylene block copolymer resin with a melt index of 20 to 40 g/10 min, a second propylene-ethylene block copolymer resin with a melt index of 5 to 15 g/10 min, a thermoplastic elastomer (styrenic or olefinic), an inorganic filler, and a nucleating agent.
- The combination of these materials results in a composite resin with enhanced impact resistance, making it suitable for applications requiring durability and strength.
Potential Applications
The technology could be used in automotive parts, construction materials, and consumer goods where impact resistance is crucial.
Problems Solved
This technology addresses the issue of brittleness in traditional polypropylene resins, providing a solution for applications requiring higher impact resistance.
Benefits
The composite resin offers improved impact resistance, potentially leading to longer-lasting and more durable products.
Potential Commercial Applications
The technology could be applied in the manufacturing of bumpers, protective gear, and industrial equipment components.
Possible Prior Art
Prior art may include similar composite resin compositions used in various industries, but the specific combination of materials in this patent application may be unique.
Unanswered Questions
