The reinforced grades are targeted at applications in the industrial, electronics and transportation markets like pipes and tubing, electrical battery components, and under-the-hood fuel or chemical contact components. 

They are specifically designed to carry the electricity harvested from solar panels to the battery that stores the energy.  

Batteries are getting larger and components are multiplying, yet engineers and designers are charged with fitting it all into compartments and vehicles that aren’t getting any larger.

The material properties data of 60A (I), 60 A (II) and 75A of Universal TPEs are presented in Table 1. 60 A (II) is the latest development based on the technology platform to improve the adhesion behavior over 60 A(1) for certain specific polyamides. They are designated as below: Universal Polyamide OM TPEs: 60A (I), 60A (II) and 75A (III), Commercial SEBS based TPE: 55A (III) and 65A (IV), Commercial EPDM based TPE: 50A (V) and 70A (VI).
