Water can enter if there is a gap in the rearview mirror housing. Below is relevant information about the materials used for rearview mirror housings: ABS: ABS is a material known for its high strength, good toughness, and ease of processing and molding. The rearview mirror housing made from modified ABS offers outstanding heat resistance and weather resistance, making it suitable for automotive rearview mirror housings. TPE: Used for sealing gaskets in the rearview mirror base. TPE material features high elasticity, high strength, excellent rebound, and is environmentally friendly, non-toxic, and safe. It has a wide hardness range, superior coloring properties, weather resistance, and temperature resistance. It offers a soft touch and excellent processing performance, requiring no vulcanization. It can be recycled to reduce costs and can be used for secondary injection molding, bonding with base materials like PP, PE, PC, PS, and ABS, or can be molded independently. ASA: ASA has strong weather resistance and relatively good high-temperature resistance, featuring outstanding heat resistance and weather resistance. It is a type of automotive plastic used for manufacturing rearview mirror housings.
