Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a thermoplastic olefinic composition made from or containing: (A) a first polymer composition made from or containing a homopolymer polypropylene; (B) a second polymer composition made from or containing a polypropylene polymer grafted with an unsaturated monomer; (C) a third polymer composition made from or containing a first elastomeric ethylene copolymer; and (D) a carbon fiber composition made from or containing a carbon fiber coupled with a sizing composition. Optionally, the thermoplastic olefinic composition may be further made from or contain (a) a fourth polymer composition made from or containing a heterophasic polypropylene copolymer, (b) a fifth polymer composition made from or containing a second elastomeric ethylene composition, (c) an inorganic filler composition, (d) an additives composition, or (e) any combination of these components. The thermoplastic olefinic composition is suitable for use as a metal-replacement component, including automotive components.
