  • Publication number: 20230091162
    Abstract: A vehicular interior component includes an interior component body and a mounting member mounted on the interior component body and having a contact surface that is touched by an occupant's hand. The mounting member includes a base member including a body that is held by the occupant and a mounting portion extending from the body, and an electrically conductive layer made of electrically conductive elastomer and disposed on the base member. The electrically conductive layer includes a contact surface portion, a contact projection projecting from a surface of the mounting portion toward the vehicle body panel, and a connecting portion connecting the contact surface portion and the contact projection. When the vehicular interior component is mounted on the vehicle body panel, a projecting end of the contact projection is contacted with the vehicular compartment interior side surface of the vehicle body panel with being elastically deformed.

  • Patent number: 9505913
    Abstract: A polylactic acid resin composition containing a polylactic acid resin, glass fibers having an average aspect ratio (average fiber length/average fiber diameter) of 5 or more, and a metallic pigment, wherein the glass fibers are contained in an amount of from 2 to 35 parts by mass, and the metallic pigment is contained in an amount of from 0.1 to 8 parts by mass, based on 100 parts by mass of the polylactic acid resin. Since the polylactic acid resin composition of the present invention has excellent moldability, and is capable of providing a molded article with high designability, including a transparent surface layer and an inner layer with a lamellar texture in the nashiji patterns, the polylactic acid resin composition can be suitably used in various industrial applications, such as daily sundries, household electric appliance parts, packaging materials for household electric appliance parts, and automobile parts.
