SABIC to debut at PCIM Asia Conference 2022 40% thinner ELCRES™ HTV150A film to support high-heat SiC inverter technology for xEV

SABIC’s new 3-micron (µm) gauge ELCRES™ HTV150A dielectric film is 40 percent thinner than SABIC’s previously announced 5 µm film and may be used for capacitors in the traction inverters, onboard chargers and electrical compressors of hybrid, plug-in hybrid and battery electric vehicles (xEV).SABIC, a global leader in the chemical industry, will introduce at the PCIM Asia Conference 2022 a thinner gauge of its ELCRES™ HTV150A dielectric film. This new product can be used for capacitors in the traction inverters, onboard chargers and electrical compressors of hybrid, plug-in hybrid and battery electric vehicles (xEV). The 3-micron (µm) film is 40 percent thinner than SABIC’s previously announced 5 µm film, enabling further volume and weight reductions and greater design flexibility through enhanced energy density for the capacitor. Like the 5 µm ELCRES HTV150A film, this exceptionally thin film maintains stable performance at high operating temperatures up to 150°C and addresses the critical performance gap experienced by traditional polypropylene (PP) films above 135°C. This new level of thermal performance helps customers increase the adoption of SiC power modules, improving inverter efficiency. A smaller package size with a thinner gauge film reduces weight while providing improved performance such as range and acceleration desired by xEV consumers.

(NASDAQ: PCT), jointly announced that they have created the first fully sustainable concentrate for PP on the market. This development advances circularity, since the concentrate based on PureCycle materials will allow for greater use of 100% recycled content. Additionally, when used in combination with PureCycle’s recycled PP, it produces a formulation with a carbon footprint (GHG) approximately 35% lower than that of virgin PP.

Heute geben Bugaboo, DSM Engineering Materials, Fibrant und Neste bekannt, dass ihre Zusammenarbeit über die gesamte Wertschöpfungskette hinweg die Einführung eines kompletten Bugaboo-Kinderwagenportfolios aus biobasierten Materialien erfolgreich ermöglicht hat. So werden die meisten Kunststoffteile des Kinderwagens aus dem 100 % biobasierten Akulon® B-MB Polyamid 6 (PA6) von DSM Engineering Materials hergestellt, das wiederum aus biobasierten Rohstoffen von Fibrant und Neste gewonnen wird. DSM Engineering Materials nutzt das Prinzip des Massenausgleichs mit erneuerbaren Abfall- und Reststoffen, um die CO2-Emissionen von PA6 im Vergleich zu gewöhnlichem PA6 um ~75 % und die des gesamten Kinderwagens um bis zu 24 % zu reduzieren.
