PACE Awards, and KetaSpire PEEK magnet wire insulation, have been selected by Mavel Powertrain for a high-voltage electric motor for a premium sports car manufacturer. The combination enhances electric motor efficiency, supporting operations at over 800 V, and allows for more copper in the motor design, which improves electrical output and thermal management. “We are proud to partner with Mavel on a project that demonstrates the tangible improvements in efficiency that our solutions bring to electric vehicles,” said Brian Baleno, Director of Global Business Development and Program Management at Syensqo. “This development is an important stride towards increasing the viability and capabilities of BEVs, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and hybrids.” As well as this application, Syensqo supports advancements in e-motor technology with Amodel PPA and Ryton PPS for busbars and connectors, and Xencor PPA LFT for slot wedges. The lightweighting of electric vehicles makes them more susceptible to vibration, and compounds have been developed to minimise or eliminate noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH).
Tisan Engineering Plastics said it supports these efforts by formulating thermoplastic materials that provide strength, performance, lighter weight, flame retardancy, better efficiency, and cost reduction for parts that are used in electric vehicles. Within its Tislamid polyamide compounds portfolio, Tislamid PA 66 – with 30% GF, hydrolysis and heat stabilised, and improved flame retardant properties – is an example for use in battery holding applications. The compound provides improved mechanical strength and excellent flame resistance certified by UL V0 approval up to 0.8 mm, but also maximum glow wire performance (GWFI = 960° C). In addition, as electric vehicles are used in very harsh environments, polymer compounds are expected to have resistance to those environments. Loss of insulation properties due to water absorption is a point of concern for electrical parts or high voltage parts such as electronic control (ECU) and power control units (PCU) and sensors. In this field, Tisan produces Tisester PBT which has a low water absorption rate and is suitable for use in high-stress parts, as it maintains its insulation properties even in the harsh environments of automobiles.
