La bandeja inferior de seguridad de los peatones moldeada a partir de la resina Xenoy iQ* de SABIC ayuda al Ford C-MAX a lograr la calificación de cinco estrellas Euro NCAP
BERGEN OP ZOOM, Países Bajos – 23 de agosto de 2011 – La resina Xenoy iQ* de la unidad de negocios estratégica Innovative Plastics de SABIC, elegida por Ford para el sistema de seguridad de los peatones de su vehículo multipropósito (MPV) C-MAX 2011, ha ayudado al fabricante de automóviles a lograr la calificación de cinco estrellas de la organización independiente de seguridad Euro NCAP (Programa Europeo de Evaluación de Automóviles Nuevos). El sistema de seguridad para los peatones del C-MAX incluye un novedoso diseño de bandeja inferior/protector de la parte inferior de las piernas fabricado con la resina de Xenoy iQ de SABIC. Las propiedades físicas inherentes de la resina Xenoy iQ la convierten en un material muy adecuado para el sistema de seguridad de los peatones del Ford C-MAX. Las propiedades superiores de ductilidad y gran resistencia a los impactos de la resina, combinadas con el diseño de la pieza, proporcionan la absorción de energía necesaria para mejorar la protección frente a un impacto en la parte inferior de la pierna. La resina también se ajusta a la perfección con el compromiso de Ford con la sustentabilidad, ya que aúna sus propiedades termoplásticas con una huella de carbono extremadamente baja. En términos generales, la aplicación de la resina Xenoy iQ en este caso demuestra cómo SABIC combina la respuesta a las necesidades en cuanto a responsabilidad ambiental con un rendimiento excepcional.
