High-voltage and high-flow polymers produced 100% renewable electricity
Solvay has announced two new Ryton polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) grades. Ryton Supreme HV and HF are specifically developed to make drivers’ lives easier with short charging times and long driving ranges. As a high-voltage PPS material, Ryton Supreme HV combines a comparative tracking index (CTI) of 600V for electrical performance and electric thermal index (RTI) >347°F (>175°C) for high heat resistance with UL94 V0 flammability ratings. This property provides a step-change towards safe and reliable components in power electronics, such as housings and chip carriers. Ryton Supreme HF offers high mechanical strength and flowability for 0.3mm thin-wall components. It can make a contribution to miniaturization and package optimization. Target applications include bobbins for stators and insulators, where lower wall-thicknesses reduce the temperature of coils and facilitate reliable thermal management.
