Envalior, a global materials technology company, has expanded its portfolio of high-performance engineering materials for electric vehicles (EV) and charging infrastructure, supporting OEMs and suppliers as they transition to electrified platforms across North America.
The company’s newest developments focus on thermal stability, flame retardancy, lightweight design, and sustainability in e-mobility applications.
Recent material innovations include:
-
Halogen-free flame-retardant Pocan PBT, which combines the dimensional stability and insulation performance of PBT with the mechanical strength and hydrolysis resistance of polyamides. The grade is designed for high-voltage connectors in 800-V EV charging systems, battery modules, and other high-current components where safety and long-term electrical integrity are critical.
-
Expanded Pocan E portfolio with high tracking resistance (CTI A 600), enabling safer electrical and electronic components such as busbars, inverters, and onboard chargers exposed to high voltages and demanding thermal cycles.
-
Stanyl PA46 solutions that allow for thinner stator insulation and durable wear- and friction-resistant components, improving power density and efficiency in compact electric motors, e-axles, and actuator systems.
-
Bio and recycled-based alternatives across Durethan, Akulon, and EcoPaXX product lines, providing drop-in materials for structural housings, underbody components, and charging interfaces. These solutions help reduce lifecycle emissions and support OEM sustainability targets without altering existing production processes.
Envalior is also committed to offering a full portfolio of bio and recycled-based solutions by 2030. For example, the Durethan ECO and Durethan BLUE PA6 grades already contain up to 90% ISCC PLUS-certified bio-based and recycled content by mass balance attribution. These materials are suited for electrical and electronic components, such as connectors, housings, and miniature circuit breakers in EV platforms and charging systems.
In addition, halogen-free, PFAS-free Pocan PBT grades provide enhanced compliance and fire safety performance for electrical components used in e-mobility environments.
By combining advanced material design with application engineering support, Envalior aims to enhance safety, reliability, and sustainability across EV platforms from the charging plug to the powertrain.
