August 23/2011
(Sabic) -- Xenoy iQ resin from SABIC’s
Innovative Plastics strategic business unit – chosen by Ford for the pedestrian
safety system of its 2011 C-MAX multipurpose vehicle (MPV) – has helped the
automaker earn a five-star rating from the independent safety organization Euro
NCAP (European New Car Assessment Program). The inherent physical
properties of Xenoy iQ resin make it a highly suitable material for the Ford
C-MAX’s pedestrian safety system. Overall, use of Xenoy iQ resin in this
case demonstrate how SABIC enables both environmental responsibility and
exceptional performance.
