Hyundai MS 210-05 Molded Plastic Parts - Interior Use

The Hyundai MS 210-05 standard, developed by Hyundai Motor Company, describes the requirements for determining the properties of molded plastic materials used in the interiors of motor vehicles and defines test methods.

The most effective and popular types of plastic molding used in the interior of vehicles are: extrusion molding, compression molding, blow molding, injection molding and rotational molding.

• With extrusion molding, hot melt plastic is pressed through a shaped hole to form an elongated piece of plastic.
• In the compression molding method, it involves pouring the raw liquid plastic into a heated mold and then compressing it together to form the desired shape. The high temperature of the whole process provides good strength in the final product.
• In the blow molding method, special plastic parts are hollow and thin-walled. This method is ideal when the plastic part must have a uniform wall thickness.
• Injection molding is quite similar to extrusion molding. The difference here is that with injection molding, molten plastic is injected directly into a special mold. The injection is under high pressure so the mold is filled and a solid part is made.
• The rotational molding method involves placing the resin or liquid inside the mold and then rotating it at high speeds. The liquid then evenly covers the entire surface of the mold to form a hollow part with all walls of equal thickness. This method is very efficient in terms of materials, more economical and environmentally friendly.

Molded plastic part testing is an integral step in the development of automotive parts. Reliable test results allow manufacturers to develop and analyze parts.

The molding process is used to create a large number of parts for automobiles, and the tests performed ensure that the parts meet the required standards and specifications. Major auto parts made from plastic in various shapes include: headlight surrounds, knobs, door handles and panels, sunroofs, fans, cooling components, fenders, bumpers and grilles, lightweight housings, wheel trims and dashboard faceplates.
