Chemicals known as flame retardants are added to materials to stop or delay the spread of fire. They are employed in a variety of commercial and consumer goods to lessen the ignitability of materials. Many times, flame retardants are sprayed or added.
Lithium batteries are the most popular type of battery now in flame retardant. Mobile phones, laptops, electric vehicles, and numerous other application scales all employ lithium batteries.
High energy density lithium batteries have an energy density that is 6-7 times greater than lead-acid batteries.
The most modern commercial lithium-ion batteries can have an energy density of and a service life of more than ten years.
The lithium ferrous phosphate positive electrode battery type 1C can be recharged 10,000 times. One of the most notable features of lithium batteries is their extremely low self-discharge rate.
Currently, lithium batteries may self-discharge at a rate of less than once per month. Because lithium batteries are green and environmentally beneficial.
The Global flame retardant battery connector market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
A new PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) compound that is halogen-free, flame-retardant, and hydrolysis-stabilized has been specially formulated by LANXESS for these high-voltage connectors.
“One strength of the structural material is that its outstanding electrical properties are hardly dependent on temperature and moisture in the typical operating conditions of high-voltage connectors,” says LANXESS.
The material has a high level of volume resistance and dielectric strength and is the first representative of the new Pocan BFN HR product line.
For instance, at temperatures as high as 140 °C, the latter is well over 30 kilovolts per millimetre (IEC 62431-1).
The substance receives a CTI A 600, the maximum class allowed by the standard, in the CTI test (Comparative Tracking Index, IEC 60112).
It has a high tracking resistance as a result, which lowers the possibility of short circuits and faults brought on by creepage currents and meets the expanding demand for tiny connectors.
