The growing challenges on fuel economy improvement and greenhouse gas emission control have become the driving force for automakers to produce lightweight automobiles. Also, the weight reduction may contribute to superior recyclability and/or vehicle performance (e.g.,improved driving economy, braking behaviors and crashworthiness). UD(Unidirectional) tapes are endless fibre-reinforced tapes of different widths with unidirectionally aligned reinforcing fibres in which glass or carbon fibres are embedded so ideally in a thermoplastic matrix that completely new possibilities arise in the production of components. Despite their low thickness, UD tapes have a high level of stability and are also particularly light. This makes them particularly suitable for the production of complex component shapes. In addition, UD tapes can be processed efficiently and, depending on the combination, are flame retardant. Another important property is the possibility of recycling.
