A process for manufacturing a diesel tank or filler pipe by an extrusion-blow molding machine configured to manufacture a gasoline tank or filler pipe. The extrusion-blow molding machine includes a coextrusion head including at least one extruder configured to provide during a first period of time a first material that is a barrier to liquids and/or gases, such that during the first period of time the coextrusion head produces a first multilayer parison from which the gasoline tank or filler pipe can be manufactured. The extruder is further configured to provide during a second period of time a second material distinct from the first material, such that during the second period of time the coextrusion head produces a second multilayer parison from which the diesel tank or filler pipe can be manufactured.

A sealing assembly for a vehicle comprises a sealing body extruded from an elastomeric material formed from an ethylene propylene diene monomer and having a base and first and second legs spaced from one another extending from the base. The base and the legs define an interior surface and a first channel for receiving a panel, and further define an exterior surface opposite the interior surface. The sealing body defines an overmold region opposite the first channel extending along a portion of the exterior surface of the sealing body. The sealing assembly further comprises a bonding layer of a first thermoplastic vulcanizate co-extruded onto the overmold region of the sealing body, and a molded layer of a second thermoplastic vulcanizate molded onto the bonding layer with the molded layer defining a second channel for receiving a fixed window of the vehicle. Also disclosed is a method for manufacturing a sealing assembly.

The invention relates to a flame retardant (meth)acrylate composition combining an impact-resistant (meth)acrylic polymer (such as Solarkote? resin from Trinseo) with specific levels of selected organic phosphinate and selected organic phosphorous flame retardants. The composition is halogen free, with superior flame performance, flowability and impact resistance. The composition of the invention is melt-processible and can be co-extruded with a thermoplastic substrate material to obtain a multilayer structure, having a tough, impact resistant cap layer(s). The obtained multilayer structure can be further thermoformed into useful profiles and structures, such as the exterior housing of EV charging stations and car wash stations, automotive applications, aerospace, and building and construction applications.
