Don’t worry, be glossy!
Ultramid® Deep Gloss – The polyamide for high gloss in automotive interiors
Ultramid® Deep Gloss is BASF’s new specialty polyamide for high-glossy components in automotive interiors. It shows a balanced property profile for components which are high gloss and yet at the same time resistant without any coating:
- high gloss level
- excellent resistance to scratching
- high chemical resistance
- low emissions
- good UV resistance
Ultramid® Deep Gloss reproduces structures true to detail. Thus, the material enables an interplay of light and shadow high in contrast. This provides designers with new opportunities to combine unusual textures with new levels of emotion. Surfaces can also be structured by haptic design elements. With suitable sensor technology, this allows integrated, functionalized designs. Examples of specially matched emotional and functional textures can be found on the back of the demonstrator component made from Ultramid® Deep Gloss:
