Interior film / trim

is used in cars for backrest trim, door trim and on the instrument panel. Plasticized PVC foamed leathercloth is often used for backrest trim.

Suitable blowing agents for this application include Porofor® ADC/M-C1 or the activated grades *Genitron® LE and SCE. Mesamoll® can be used as plasticizer: it exhibits good gelling power, permitting a low processing temperature or very high processing speeds.

Modified PVC films are commonly used for instrument panel trim.  Fogging is caused by the evaporation of volatile polymer components in the car interior, which then settle on windows and other surfaces.
