Electric vehicles use high-voltage cables to transmit electrical power to the charging port, battery, engine and other internal components. The automotive industry requires these cables to be lightweight to improve vehicle efficiency and all-electric range. These engines are very hot and contain harsh chemicals. An advanced insulation material is needed to protect cables from this…

Envision a car or truck that performs the same as a conventional vehicle, but its fuel tank can be filled in less than five minutes, it can travel 300-400 miles on a tank, and emits nothing into the atmosphere but water vapor. That’s a fuel cell vehicle (FCV), and it’s a growing market – particularly…

New fluoropolymer compounds for flat wire jackets enable automakers to move away from traditional rounded wires and reach 96 percent occupancy. Electric vehicle manufacturers are persistently working to develop ways to improve engine performance, raise output density, increase motor efficiency output and make better use of space. Space utilization is particularly important with wiring. The…
