Traditionally aluminum or zinc aluminum alloys (Zamak) are used for heat sinks due to their high thermal conductivity, which was also the case at Elausa.

Design freedom, metal replacement and Thermally Conductive Formulations provide powerful solution for Elausa Electronics

ThermoBallistic™ thermoplastic panels are thermally formed with layers of 0°/90° unidirectional E-glass fiber reinforcements with polyolefin-based resin systems. Electrically non-conductive

It’s difficult to minimize the tradeoffs between thermal stability, foaming control and high processing temperatures when applying wire insulation,” explained Barto du Plessis, general manager, PolyOne Colorant Chromatics. Tight Tolerances: Enhanced dispersion of active foaming ingredients produces a consistent cell structure of 200 micron or less insulation thickness and density are reduced without adversely effecting electrical, chemical or thermal properties Thermal Stability: Excellent heat resistance from 340 - 380°C supports effective homogenization of the foaming agent with high-performance polymers
