Energy Advancement Technology on Show at smarter E Europe 2023

Posted by Staff | Jun 09, 2023

Sabic will highlight material solutions suited for the electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE), battery, solar, and wind industries at the smarter E Europe 2023 event in Munich, Germany, this month. Sabic's specialty resins, compounds, and co-polymers include bio-based, recycled, and upcycled solutions that contribute to sustainability, as well as grades with performance enhancements and new designs for applications across these rapidly expanding sectors.

As an example of this effort, Sabic will be launching at the show new LNP Elcres CRX grades that can provide a combination of flame retardance (FR) and impact and chemical resistance to EVSE components. "Our specialized materials aim to address shortcomings of incumbent solutions, expand design freedom, deliver enhanced properties, and enable the growth and adoption of new energy technologies," said Sabic's Marco Dalmino, EMEA director of customer fulfillment.

A robust charging infrastructure is a key enabler for the wider adoption of electric vehicles (EVs). As consumers demand unfettered access to public charging stations, improved reliability, and faster charging speeds, new materials can help provide greater safety, extended durability, and better performance. Sabic's thermoplastics can deliver resistance to impact, UV light, chemicals, and weather, as well as enhanced electrical and FR properties.

Parts to be exhibited include:

Vehicle electrification on a massive scale together with the continued shift to renewable energy generation call for new storage and distribution solutions. A spectrum of batteries, from household to industrial level, will be required. Different battery chemistries will play a role, including conventional lead and lithium as well as hydrogen. Sabic's specialized materials can help enable new designs, improve energy density and efficiency, and reduce weight, said the company.

Components to be exhibited include:

The smarter E Europe 2023 will take place June 14 to 16 in Munich.
