Growing demand from the automotive industry
Elastomer is extensively used in the automotive industry due to its properties such as resistance to oil, grease, and ozone; impact strength; and good resilience. It is mainly used in interior designing of vehicles. TPU is the most majorly used elastomer in the automotive industry. After the economic slowdown from 2009 to 2012, the automotive industry is recuperating and growing at a good pace. Demand for elastomers is high in the automotive industry as it can be used as a substitute for rubber and PVC without compromising on any performance parameter. The use of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer can result in better UV resistance, good mechanical performance, and reduced thickness with finish of a softer touch. Another major advantage of elastomer is that it can be manufactured in any color to match the vehicles color; it also provides better low temperature performance and high abrasion resistance. Owing to the abovementioned properties, elastomer is used for manufacturing gear knobs, cup holders and interior door handles, cover strips, chassis spring seating, and bushings.
