High performance and sustainable flame retardant solution to EV
High-voltage plugs, connectors, bus bars and other electrical components in EV require high-performing polymers with high-performance flame retardants such as Clariant's Exolit.
We enable manufacturers to reach Performance Level Category 0, which holds for 600 volts. That way, conducting parts can be fit closer together, allowing further miniaturization and weight cutting.
Exolit is hydrolysis-stable and can be used in dedicated hydrolysis resistant formulations as well.
In EVs, the color orange is a safety feature. Exolit can be used for any color. Other flame retardants can also cause heat-related discoloration over time. Our solution affects the color of the polymer less than any other product.
