APPLICATIONS

MERCURY PLASTICS MASTERBATCH FOR STADIUM SEATING

Mercury Plastics is now marketing a special combination master- batch for stadium seating. The products are manufactured by

Sarma of Italy, a fellow company of Mercury within the San&z group.

Combi-batch is aimed at the polypropylene stadium seating mar- ket, where weather resistance is vital. Twenty colours are available for use at lo%, and all have been tested successfully in Italy.

The product is a synergistic blend of pigment, flame retardant and UV stabilizer.

ELESCTRICALLY Volvo's new 480 sports car is one of the first production models CONDUCTIVE PLASTICS to feature heated external rearview mirrors that use an elec-

IN VOLVO trically conductive plastic. The self-regulating heater ele- ments are produced by Swedish company Norells, using PTC (posi- tive thermal coefficient) material developed in association with ABB Polymers in Stockholm.

The material is a carbon-black filled copolymer of polyethylene.
