Definitions
- the invention relates to the use of melamine derivatives as gloss modifiers in polymer products and to corresponding methods and processes, as well as obtainable products.
- the present invention also provides a method of modulating, especially reducing the gloss of polymeric compositions comprising adding melamine derivatives to polymeric compositions, methods for their manufacture and the corresponding polymeric compositions, as well as products made from these polymeric compositions.
- Low gloss polymeric compositions formed in accordance with the present invention are suitable for applications where the use of polymers having a matte surface finish is advantageous such as, for example, some automotive (interior) applications.
- Advanced materials based on PP continue to be popular for automotive interior and exterior components due to major advantages such as low density, convenient processability and good cost/performance balance.
- the final customers (especially car buyers) continue to increase their quality demands.
- the (especially car) manufacturers try to meet these demands through improved surface properties, such as scratch resistance, styling harmony, new co- lours and valuable look, as well as good safety properties, e.g. avoiding disturbing light reflections.
- the highest level of interest for interior applications are seen in instrument panel structures, consoles, other interior trim parts, instrument panels as such and door panel skins, but also seat components, handles, cargo liners, engine compartment components or the like. Also in other fields corresponding materials are of interest, e.g. for machine housings, appliances, consumer or electronic devices, outdoor vehicles and devices or any other parts or (e.g. fibre or film) articles needing good mechanical strength and favourable optics, such as low gloss.
- the main substrates, for which low gloss and improved scratch resistance remain an unrealized need are substrates like talc-filled PP copolymer or PP based TPE (skin).
- composition of these materials can vary in a wide range, it is clear, that low gloss and scratch resistance depends on the resin used, the type and content of elastomer and talc, stabilizers and co-additives as well as pigments and other fillers. In addition also the processing conditions and the surface texture (grain) play an important role.
- These new materials are intended to be used without any coatings and may be used for both positive (grained during skin fabrication) and negative (grained in the mould tooling) forming process.
- compositions that allow for the manufacture of products as mentioned without requiring additional coatings or surface treatments.
- compositions allowing with low gloss properties while maintaining other important properties such as scratch resistance and mechanical properties, e.g. tensile modulus, tensile stress at break, tensile strain at break and impact resistance .
- Low gloss surfaces of the automotive interior are needed especially for two reasons: a) Safety, e.g. lower reflection from the dashboard on to the windshield, b) Design and aesthetics: low gloss surfaces are perceived as higher quality and higher value parts.
- the main substrates meaning basis materials for articles), for which low gloss and improved scratch resistance remain an unrealized need, are substrates like talc-filled PP copolymer or PP based TPE (skin).
- substrates like talc-filled PP copolymer or PP based TPE (skin).

- an amount of melamine derivative is added that is effective in lowering the gloss in comparison to the composition lacking said melamine derivative (but which is otherwise identical).
- the conditions of the manufacture of the polymer article to be produced are chosen so that the melamine derivative addition, especially the amount and/or the type of the melamine derivative, in combination with the chosen process conditions leads to a lowering of gloss compared to an article that has an otherwise identical composition but that lacks the melamine derivative(s).
