Specialty high-performance thermoplastic polyolefin compounds based on polypropylene are known as performance polyolefins.Available in a variety of OEM-specific colours, natural colour, unfilled colour,and talcum colour. Performance polyolefins are specifically made for the automotive sector, giving a new level of adaptability to a wide range of lightweight and robust automotive applications.
Performance polyolefins have several potential uses in electric vehicles (EVs) due to their excellent properties and ability to meet the requirements of the automotive industry.
Performance polyolefins can be used to make battery components such as cell separators, gaskets, and end caps. They offer excellent chemical resistance and electrical insulation, making them ideal for these applications
Wiring and cables: Performance polyolefins can be used to make wiring and cables for EVs. They offer good electrical insulation, flexibility, and heat resistance, which are important properties for this application.
They can be used to make interior components such as dashboard trims, door panels, and seat backs as well as Exterior components. They offer good impact resistance, dimensional stability, and surface finish, weatherability, and color stability which are important properties for these applications.
Overall performance polyolefins offer a range of benefits for EV applications, including their light weight, durability, and recyclability, making them a popular choice for automotive manufacturers looking to reduce vehicle weight and increase efficiency.
The Global EV performance polyolefins 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.
