  • Scratch and mar resistant polymer compositions, methods for making and articles made from the same
    Patent number: 7790795
    Abstract: Provided is a polymer composition comprising a thermoplastic, an ethylene alpha-olefin plastomer, a fibrous inosilicate and a slip agent. The polymer composition exhibits superior scratch and mar resistance as indicated by a Ford Five Finger scratch resistance on Ford Fawn 2ZK grain of at least 15 N. Also provided are shaped articles made from the polymer compositions. Also provided are methods for making scratch and mar resistant polymer compositions. Finally, articles made from the polymer compositions are also provided, particularly automotive exterior, interior and fascia parts, requiring scratch and mar resistance.
    Type: Grant
