Use of composites and PMMA in vehicle car production

The North American automotive industry has shown significant growth opportunities for composites in various applications. The high cost and lack of cost-effective manufacturing process for high-volume applications have been restricting the use of composite materials in the automotive industry. However, the increased focus on reducing the weight of the vehicles and subsequent performance enhancement have encouraged the companies to opt for composites and PMMA plastics.

Industry experts are expecting an increase in demand for long fiber reinforced thermoplastic (LFRT) and lightweight reinforced thermoplastic materials in automotive applications over the next five years. Companies, such as BMW (Germany), Mercedes-Benz, Lamborghini, and other high-end automakers, are planning to increase the use of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) components in their vehicles to reduce weight. This is also expected to improve the fuel economy by up to 50% and reduce the weight of the vehicles by 20–75% in comparison to the traditional materials.

High capital cost and cost of plastic materials

Capital costs involved with new material design or innovation are often averaged out in the long run or the life cycle of machine or equipment. This characteristic resists the utilization of new advanced materials in automotive designs because these materials require new manufacturing technologies and involve process re-engineering, which incurs a huge capital cost. Material cost is a major concern for high volume production of automotive plastics. Steel is still preferred in the automotive industry, as it has inherent advantages, in terms of available technological expertise, and is the cheapest material per pound in comparison to the materials considered for structural components. Moreover, conventional equipment and processes are used for manufacturing and joining/welding new advanced high-strength steels. Therefore, steel is often a preferred choice of the manufacturers seeking a significant reduction in vehicular weight. Therefore, high capital costs incurred in the deployment of automotive plastics in the existing metallic applications restrict its adoption in new vehicle designs.
