Polycarbonate is one kind of plastic film that is becoming more widely used in the market for EV charging stations and the parts that make them up. It is well known that polycarbonate is very durable and impact-resistant.
Due to its resistance to possible dings and scratches from automobiles, it is perfect for EV stations and charging points.
And given that it is located outside, it might even endure vandalism or harsh weather. Although polycarbonate film often comes in transparent rolls, there are several visual resin forms available. Polycarbonate film is also adaptable.
In this developing business, polycarbonate/PC film can be utilised for a wide range of things, from charger housings and covers to light and display lenses. As the industry develops and grows, this enables EV station owners to maintain low maintenance costs and make investments in materials that last.
The Global EV charger polycarbonate resin 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 resin has been introduced by the Saudi Basic Industries Corporation (SABIC) for the insulation sheet in EV battery modules with 600–800 V cells.
The company claims that NORYL NHP8000VT3, a polyphenylene ether (PPO)-based resin, offers superior CTI performance and thinner-wall FR capabilities as compared to polycarbonate (PC) and polypropylene (PP) insulating films. The polymers for battery modules and housings are NORYL NHP6011 and NHP6012.
The series is further diversified by NORYL NHP8000VT3 resin, which offers stronger comparative tracking index performance. In comparison to PC or PP,it can give a high level of flame retardance at a thinner film gauge, potentially freeing up important space in the battery pack.
For upcoming mobility applications, Teijin and Applied Electric Vehicles (Applied EV) have created a polycarbonate solar roof. Teijin’s Panlite polycarbonate resin glazing, which is subsequently moulded into shape, serves as the surface of the new solar roof.
According to Teijin, the material reaches the strength and rigidity needed for car roofs.To achieve the amount of weather resistance required for prolonged outside usage, conventional polycarbonate resin needs to undergo special processing.
