Syensqo and Politubes have announced a strategic partnership to develop slot liner spiral-wound tubes using Ajedium™ polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and polyphenylsulfone (PPSU) film.
Politubes is a manufacturer of flexible multi-layered spiral-wound tubes and insulator caps components.
Enhances e-motor efficiency by up to 2%
These spiral-wound slot liner tubes leverage the high-performance properties of Ajedium™ PEEK films, providing superior insulation for electric motors. The unique product design enhances e-motor efficiency by up to 2%, enabling a more effective copper fill factor and improved heat dissipation. This allows manufacturers to benefit from lightweighting and reduced total costs, while gaining higher efficiency and increased packaging space within vehicles.
“Over the past years, we’ve seen increasing demand from automotive original equipment manufacturers for EVTubes made with PEEK or PPSU. We are thrilled to partner with Syensqo, a trusted partner in advanced materials, to meet these customer requests and deliver high-quality solutions,” Federico Penzo, CEO of Politubes.
