Dow Corning Corp.:
MOLYKOTE(r) D-96 ANTI-FRICTION Coating QUIETS AUTO INTERIORS
Monday, May 07, 2007

Molykote(r) D-96 Anti-Friction Coating
from Dow Corning reduces or eliminates noise in automotive interior
components, including door panels, arm rests, instrument panels, glove
boxes and clips.
"Intermittent motions between interior parts are the main source of
automotive interior noise, and may be caused by vibrations from
irregularities in the road surface, engine idling or acceleration
forces," said Tom Springstead, Dow Corning Global Program Manager for
Powertrain Sealing and Lubrication. "Molykote D-96 Anti-Friction
Coating minimizes automotive interior noise by providing a smooth
surface between mating parts."
D-96 Anti-Friction Coating has a near-transparent appearance that blends
with a wide range of interior part colors, and can be used in place of
expensive alternatives such as non-woven tapes. The air-curing, dry
coating is suitable for plastic-on-plastic, plastic-on-metal,
plastic-on-leather, and leather-on-leather interior parts that
experience vibrations during regular driving conditions.
