Material Specification

GMW15340

Polyolefin Alloy - Talc Filled, High Stiffness,


High Impact, Interior Thermoplastic Olefin

1 Scope
1.1 Material Description. This specification describes material grades of polyolefin alloy, pellet form, injection
molding compounds.
For the purpose of this specification, polyolefin alloy is defined as an alloy of polypropylene plastic and Ethylene
Propylene (EP) or Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) rubber.
The classification into groups is according to the different properties as described in Table 1.
1.2 Symbols. The material abbreviation according to ISO 11469 is >PP+EP(D)M-M20 <.
1.3 Applicability. Typical applications include the following: Interior Trim.

3 Requirements

--`,,````,`,,`,,`,,``,``,,,,```-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---

3.1 Requirements on Test Specimens. Unless otherwise specified, injection molding of test specimens shall
be accomplished per ISO 294 with the conditions for injection molding from ISO 1873-2. Test methods and
specimen dimensions are also to be in accordance with ISO 1873-2 with the following additions: use ISO 3167,
Type 1A, thickness 4 mm for tensile and flexural properties.
All tests shall be performed on specimens 40 h minimum after molding and immediately following a conditioning
period of 24 h minimum in a controlled atmosphere per GMW3221, Code A, unless otherwise specified. All tests
shall be performed on unannealed specimens.
The values specified in Table 1 shall be met by test specimens in natural or black; the values specified in Table 2
shall be met by integrally colored test specimens. For integrally colored grades where other additive systems
(e.g., stabilizer) are used, the impact values shall not decrease more than 10% from specified minimum value.
All parts manufactured from molding compounds shall be resistant to the media they contact at their place of
use.

3.2 Emissions Testing of Interior Materials and Parts. For all Code E designated parts per GMW14444,
reference GMW16853 for emissions testing of interior materials and parts.
3.3 Requirements on Delivery. Materials approved to this specification shall meet the requirements of
GMW3013.
Important physical, mechanical and thermal properties that characterize the material are summarized in Table 1
and Table 2.
Note: For each product, the requirements to Table 1 and Table 2 shall be documented by Certification Statement
according to GMW3013. The color shall be specified on drawings, in material specifications and otherwise.
The following are also required for full specification approval. The minimum number of lots per test required is
one in natural:

Poissons Ratio

Stress-Strain Curves at multiple temperatures: +23 C, +85 C, -30 C

Multiaxial Impact Curves at low temperature.


See GMW3013 Template for the test procedures.
3.4 Performance Requirements. Performance requirements: Proof of successful airbag deployments with
written confirmation, e.g., signed Analysis, Developmental, Validation Plan and Report (ADVP&R), completed
test report, etc.

5 Rules and Regulations

6 Approved Sources
Materials supplied to this specification must be approved by General Motors.
A list of approved materials can be found in MATSPC. This GM Material File is provided to third parties to reduce
redundant testing of materials. If approved material already listed is used, the part supplier can use GM Material
File reference for Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) material approval. If the decision is made to use a
not yet approved material, contact the Regional Materials Engineer of the Plastics Global Subsystem Leadership
Team for details on the approval process. The material approval process must be completed prior to PPAP start
date of the part supplied to General Motors.

5.1 Legal Regulations. All materials must satisfy applicable laws, rules, regulations and recommendations valid
in the country of usage.
5.2 Language. In the event of conflict between the English and domestic language, the English language shall
take precedence.
5.3 Inspection and Rejection. Samples of components or materials released to a GM material specification
shall be tested for conformity with the requirements of this material specification and approved by the responsible
Engineering department prior to commencement of delivery of bulk supplies.
A new approval must be received for any changes, e.g., properties, manufacturing process, location of
manufacture, etc. If not otherwise agreed, all testing and documentation normally required for initial release must
be completed.
It is the responsibility of the supplier to inform the customer in a timely manner, without solicitation, and to include
documentation of all modifications of materials and/or processes and to apply for a new release.
If not otherwise agreed, all release tests shall be repeated and documented by the supplier prior to
commencement of delivery of non-conforming bulk supplies. In individual cases, a shorter test can be agreed to
between the responsible Engineering department and the supplier.
5.4 Material Safety Data Sheets/Safety Data Sheets (MSDS/SDS). For new product submissions, or when a
change in chemical composition of an existing product has occurred, a complete copy of the Material Safety
Data Sheet/Safety Data Sheet must be submitted in compliance with the Globally Harmonized System of
Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS) requirements or other country-specific MSDS/SDS
requirements. In addition, product MSDS/SDS submissions must be in compliance with specific country General
Motors TMC003 Material Safety Data Sheet/Safety Data Sheet guidance documents where available.
5.5 All materials supplied to this standard must comply with the requirements of GMW3059, Restricted and
Reportable Substances for Parts.
