SCOPE The material defined by this specification is

3、 a 15% mineral filled thermoplastic injection molding compound based on thermoplastic polyolefin elastomer (TPO). For mold-in-color with added UV stabilization for exterior, use WSS-M4D873-B1, or use WSS-M4D873-B2 for painting, provided that suitable surface pretreatment is used. 2. APPLICATION WSS-

4、M4D873-B1 This specification was released originally for material used for exterior parts, mold- in-color, which are exposed to sunlight such as bumper shells and body side moldings. Any color additives need to be reviewed and approved by the raw material supplier and Ford Materials Engineering. The

5、 UV/process/heat stabilizers must be in the base resin from the material supplier, not in the color concentrate, specifically for mold-in-color applications at the press. WSS-M4D873-B2 This specification was released originally for material used for painted exterior applications, such as bumper shel

6、ls and body side moldings. This specification was developed to be used in conjunction with WSS-M4D873-B1 to match shrinkages when moulding both painted and unpainted components in one tool. Any color additives need to be reviewed and approved by the raw material supplier and Ford Materials Engineeri

7、ng. The process/heat stabilizers must be in the base resin from the material supplier. 2.1 LIMITATIONS WSS-M4D873-B1 - This material should not be used for painted applications since it contains performance additives that negatively affect paint adhesion. - This material should not be used for fasci

8、as in FNA. WSS-M4D873-B2 - This material is unlikely to contain UV stabilizers, therefore long term exposure to direct sunlight could cause chalking and loss of gloss. - This material should not be used for fascias in FNA.
