Sažetak
The demands on the modern automotive industry are ever challenging - motorists want high performance cars but at the same time they are looking for improved reliability and safety, greater comfort, fuel efficiency, style, competitive pricing and, increasingly, reassurance about environmental impact. Plastics are the family of materials that is rising to the challenge of these potentially conflicting demands. Technological innovation by the plastics industry is a key feature in the continuing development and use of plastics in cars. Today, they provide multi-component, tailor-made solutions for many new requirements, replacing more traditional and heavier materials in the process. Plastics have a major role in developing the sustainable car of tomorrow.
