Bayflex ® RIM<br />
for exterior body parts<br />
Bayflex ® RIM is a moulded micro-cellular or solid<br />
polyurethane material usually reinforced with fillers.<br />
It is used for painted body parts, such as:<br />
� Bumper covers � Spoilers<br />
� Side panels � Wings<br />
� Rocker panels � Door panels<br />
22 23<br />
The material permits complex shapes with long flow<br />
paths. New component designs provide for wall<br />
thicknesses of 1.5 to 2.5 mm. Bayflex ® RIM st<strong>and</strong>s<br />
out from other plastics due to its special combination<br />
of properties:<br />
� Light weight<br />
� Rigid but elastic<br />
� Impact resistance at low temperatures<br />
� Low coefficient of thermal expansion<br />
� Dimensional stability at relatively high coating<br />
temperatures<br />
Bayflex ® for modular window<br />
encapsulation<br />
Paintable or light-resistant Bayflex ® is used to encapsulate<br />
windows <strong>and</strong> sun roofs. Due to its excellent flowablility<br />
<strong>and</strong> low processing pressures as compared<br />
with injection moulding, the material is particularly<br />
suitable for large, curved windows.<br />
