  • Patent number: 12195615
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an automotive part (such as an exterior automotive part, a semi-exterior automotive part or an interior automotive part) prepared from a thermoplastic composition comprising: from 48-95 wt. % based on the weight of the composition of a heterophasic propylene copolymer; wherein said heterophasic propylene copolymer consists of i) a propylene-based matrix consisting of a propylene homopolymer and/or a propylene-?-olefin copolymer, said propylene ?-olefin copolymer consisting of at least 70 wt. %, and ii) a dispersed ethylene-?-olefin copolymer comprising ethylene and at least one C3 to C10 ?-olefin; from 0-20 wt. %, preferably from 1-20 wt. % ethylene-?-olefin elastomer comprising ethylene and a C3 to C10 ?-olefin; from 1-30 wt. % high aspect ratio; from 0.05-2 wt. % antioxidant additive selected from the group consisting of i) a tocopherol or a tocotrienol; or ii) a hydroxylamine from 0-3 wt. % an additional additive.
